The secret is out. Idaho is the ultimate destination for winter adventures. With so many options for secluded hot springs, backcountry skiing, and free winter festivals all across the state, there's something for every winter explorer. Throw your snowshoes in the car, pack a thermos full of your favorite hot drink, and start planning your big winter trip to Idaho before the snow melts.
