Never mind, I found the general area. Did you overnight in the cabin?

I'm thinking of perhaps trying the road from highway 21 into Gran Jean and back on Sunday next weekend or weekend after that.

Great pictures.

 

Cabin? What cabin? (Hopefully, you are talking with me, Steve...) We drove back to Boise at the end of the day. We are talking about heading back up there at the end of this week to have some down time in the mountains.

I would be interested to know if the road up to Gran Jean is actually open. Avalanches and mud sides, along with downed trees my inhibit your trek, even if the snow is melted.

 

I was writing to you, and anticipating your question, I just called the Boise National Forest, they transferred me to the Lowman folks, who told me the road is open.

This early in the season, I always take Mr. Stihl with me, just in case...

We don't do cabins, either. We're still in a 4-man tent...my lady, I, and 2 4-legged security guards. The cabin I referred to has its picture on your post.

Great video's...the starting perspective on the "crawl" video makes it look like you're scaling the Grand Canyon. Nice to see that Hamish got filthy.

I'm not seeing that pic of a cabin, but if my father in law inadvertantly filmed one... I HAVE GOT TO FIND THAT! LOL.

Yeah, we have tents, but also have a 26' travel trailer, which my wife prefers over the tents. I am planning on doing some tent camping with the girls this summer to try and have some daddy / daughter time before they grow up completely!

 

I'm writing this flow-0f-consciousness / James Joyce style...

Google Boiling Springs Idaho...Boiling Springs Idaho Cabin

 

Oh, that cabin! Yeah... no, we have never stayed in that one. It looks nice, but we typically camp on the opposite side of the bridge, down by the water outside the actual camp ground. More room and no fee.

 

FYI. This is what stopped us from getting all of the way back to the camp ground.

This was about 5 miles away from the camp ground.

 

Oh, and the ground was still shifting around this too... I found (after walking in front of the slide) that the ground in front of the BFR (Big F'n Rock) was actually dirt covered snow... so the snow was melting and the ground was shifting. We left fairly quickly thereafter.

 

That's an outstanding pic, particularly imo in composition. I'd take that chip to Idaho Camera, have them blow you up (if you got the Mp's) and add it as vignette on an 11x17 or larger and hang that thing up. You'll go down in family history.

Which road had the bf-rock...usfs or state of Idaho.

I think you would have better luck next time if you pushed with both hands.
