The drive into the Sawtooth Range was lovely. We meandered up a valley, summited and dropped into the Salmon River Valley. We could see the small beginnings of the river high up the valley and by the time we got to Stanley it was flowing wide and fast. The mining history in the area is the typical story of rise to glory followed by the bust. Stories of large towns are told – but nothing can be seen anymore. We have settled into a campground that has an incredible view of the mountains – when the clouds lift! The scenery is unexpectedly gorgeous. I think we will stay here and skip Boise.
