From the south, you approach Challis on US 93 over Willow Creek Summit (7,280 ft.) and through Grand View Canyon before entering Round Valley. As you continue you'll meet Scenic Byway 75, coming into US 93 from the west. Heading west, you'll be mesmerized by the winding road toward the headwaters of the Salmon River and the view of the spectacular Sawtooth Mountains. Heading north you'll follow the river downstream toward the town of Salmon at the foot of the Bitterroot Mountains, where Lewis & Clark crossed the Continental Divide.

The seasonal changes provide us with four distinct natural displays of color; from the warm autumn hues, to the cool winter white of snow capping our mountain tops to the first flush of green in the spring and the wildflower show in early spring.

Daily temperatures can fluctuate up to 40 degrees year round, even after the hottest day; you can expect a cool comfortable evening.

If your destination is the great outdoors, we have a world of recreational opportunities beyond belief. The Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, the Salmon River and the Rocky Mountains surround us. You'll have rivers to float, mountains to climb, lakes to fish and historical sites to explore.
