"Located in central Idaho and called by one local guide “world-class scenery worthy of a national park,” this 756,000-acre recreation area contains hundreds of miles of trails, more than 300 alpine lakes, and 40 peaks over 10,000 feet; while it is one of the most heavily visited areas in the state, it is noted as being “nowhere near as crowded as nearby Yellowstone, Grand Teton, or Glacier National Parks.”" - Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel Lydia Mansel is a writer with more than eight years of experience editing and writing for both brands and online publications—with a particular focus on travel, fashion, and lifestyle.
