5 Idaho Adventures Perfect for Spending the Holidays Outside
Go wander this winter.
The holiday season is upon us! Now is when we get to slow down a little, spend time with our loved ones, and reconnect with the things that are most important. For us, spending time outside is high on that list and Idaho is the perfect place to make some holiday memories in the snow. Are you and yours are looking for a casual snowshoe adventure? Or how about a few days tucked away in the backcountry, skiing and soaking in hot springs? Maybe you want to really disconnect and spend a night on top of a mountain. Whatever time you have or adventure you’re craving, Idaho knows how to spend the holidays outside.
