Whether you're looking for a beautiful Greenbelt trail along the Boise River or want to challenge yourself in the Owyhees, Steve's comprehensive knowledge, descriptions and love of the Treasure Valley outdoors make you want to get out and experience it for yourself. This is the book you want to use when exploring Southwest Idaho trails. Steve's Boise Trail Guide has been a tremendous resource for our customers. "synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. In the Epic category, you will discover some really challenging routes in the Sawtooth Mountains, the Deadwood-Julie Creek Loop in the Boise National Forest, and Stuebys Death March in the Boise Foothills. It also takes a peek into a few of my favorite trails in the Owyhees with the Oolite Interpretive Trail, the West Fork Shoofly Quick Loop, and the Wilson-Reynolds Loop, among others. The new edition spotlights newly built, popular trails such as the Around the Mountain Trail at Bogus Basin, Freddys Stack Rock Trail, Peggy's Trail, Highlands-Corrals-Bobs Loop, and the Watchman Loop. And then it is capped off with six, unforgettable Epic Mountain Trails that will test the best. The new edition includes a similar mix of trails, starting with 17 flat Greenbelt trails and 17 Easy Mountain Trails, and then building to more substantial routes with more challenge and vertical gain with 25 Moderate Mountain Trails and 29 Strenuous Mountain Trails. Now you can experience even more new trails close to home. That is what I have heard from people who loved the first edition.

I was a little conflicted about not inviting Dan, but it was important to me that this image 100% mine, with zero outside influence.New in Spring 2018 comes a whole new edition of Boise Trail Guide, featuring 95 hiking and running trails in the greater Boise area greenbelt trails, mountain trails in the Boise Foothills, Bogus Basin trails, new routes in the Owyhee Canyonlands, sweet trails in the Boise National Forest near Idaho City, Garden Valley and Smiths Ferry, and full descriptions and maps for the Boise Grand Slam Peaks.īoise Trail Guide has such a rich diversity of trails that it will break you out of the mold of covering the same trails over and over again. I captured a number of shots that I really liked (I took over 500) and after a few days of going back and forth, settled on this one. My goal: capture an image that I felt did justice to the unique landscape and hopefully, with a decent sunset. So, a month or so back when I saw that day 1000 was approaching, I started scheming and this place came to mind. We visited a year or two back and while I’m sure he captured magic while we were there, I did not. It’s an odd little place out in the middle of the desert that my good friend Dan showed me. Lots of good times, some sad ones, and in most cases – beauty, in some form or another.Ī little about this image… For those that aren’t aware, this is located at the Shoofly Oolite Interpretive Trail, down south of Grand View, ID. Overall, I think it’s safe to say that the overall quality of images I take are getting better too, albeit slowly sometimes.īeyond that, I’ve found that I really do love having this log of my life. I absolutely know this camera inside and out and can run it in the dark w/out thinking about it, so mission accomplished there. Well, I made it to day 1000! Definitely not my goal when I started this challenge almost 3 years ago, but I’m glad I stuck with it.
