• Wild Rose (Milford Sweat) Clean Up SUCCESS!

  2010 Jan 26

  We finally made it to Wild Rose- and worth every second of anticipation in getting there. Along the way we pit stopped for a little morning motivation at Outlaws and Angels in Bliss, to find the craziest local bar any of us had seen in a while! Upon arriving at the hotsrpings the place was [...]

• Gold Fork Glory

  2010 Jan 25

  Gold Fork Hot Springs Idaho Trip Report I have been way overdue for a visit to one of my favorite commercial hot springs, and Gold Fork did not fail to deliver. Highway 55 was in pretty good shape, as was the road to Gold Fork on the way out. However, on the return drive the roads [...]

• Gold Fork Hot Springs Underwater

  2010 Jan 23

  Located near the quaint recreation towns of Cascade and Donnelly, deep within Central Idaho’s rugged mountains, lies Gold Fork Hot Springs. I actually saw people drinking massive amounts of water right out of the hot springs on this trip! I know Gold Fork has some of the best quality of water around, but really? The [...]

• GOOD BEER IN CANS! 10% Off

  2010 Jan 12

  In all of our clean up efforts one of the most menacing things we find is broken glass, not only does it hurt unsuspecting people; but it also hurts animals that do not have the ability to take care of their wounds and destroys our gear. The good news is we now have Brewforia! It [...]

• Loftus Clean Up 1/10/10

  2010 Jan 12

  Last Sunday we went and cleaned up Loftus on a somewhat short notice, due to uncertain funding. It was a mess- the majority of it coming from a combination of glow sticks, the plastic pieces that hold them together and bullet shells. Other debris from tea light candles and other small odds and ends cluttered [...]

• Salute to Scenic Hot Springs

  2010 Jan 09

  Scenic Hot Springs in Washington has always been one of my favorites. Truly a stellar soak. Rick updated Scenic’s Blog on Thursday with the sad news… complete closure. It’s the same story we hear all too often in regard to public hot springs – the few that ruined it for the many. Before it’s official [...]

• Wildlife Slaughter Tournament in Twin Falls Saturday

  2010 Jan 09

  The Idaho Sportsmen for Fish and Wildlife (SFW), Governor Butch Otter’s mostly out-of-state ultra-rich cattle rancher buddies, are back at it again with a Wildlife Killing Derby in Twin Falls, Idaho this Saturday. Sadly, this disturbing event is sponsored not only by Idaho’s Governor and Fish and Game Chair Wayne Wright,  but by Cabela’s and [...]
