Little Boulder Creek Trail to Hummock Lake

This is an easy, yet breathtakingly beautiful hike. After the fun adventure of the 10.2 mile extra bumpy dirt road to the trail head the hike in is simple. 4 Wheel drive and a spare tire are advised, I got a flat. The drive in through old burned forest area is a cool drive on its own. At the end of the road there will be a parking lot and toilets. From here just follow the signs to the lake. Th...

The historic 1930s stone bathhouse (with pit toilet) adds a touch of nostalgia to the site. Accessible year-round, Sunbeam Hot Springs is ...

This 3-mile round trip hike starts at above 8,000 feet, just shy of Galena Summit. If you have not yet adjusted to the mile-high altitude of Ketchum, prepare to be fairly winded throughout this walk. Though only 1.5 miles to the lake, the trail is at times quite steep, so be prepared to climb. The altitude at the highest point is about 9,050 feet. Once at the lake, if it's hot enough, there's a...
