GENERAL COMMENTS: November 19, 2024

Winter is turning on and trails throughout the valley have partial to full snow coverage. All trails on Summer Trailink have either been turned to partially open (yellow) or closed (red). Any trail labeled as partially open, is available for use if conditions allow. If you plan to head out on the trails, be sure to pay attention to the temperatures and weather as those will heavily affect the trail conditions. When you head out, don’t forget your layers, temps can change quickly in our mountains!

More wildlife will be moving down into our valley with the recent snow and future storms. Be sure to maintain awareness of your surroundings. Keep your dogs under voice control or on a leash to prevent them from chasing wildlife. Look at our TRAIL ALERTS page for tips and reminders on recreating around wildlife. Over the winter keep in mind there are conditional closures that will possibly impact some trails in the South Valley between January 1-April 30. These closures are implemented if the land managers feel it is necessary for the health of the deer and elk populations. In our North Valley there is a yearly closure in the Warm Springs drainage to protect wintering elk and deer. Please respect these and educate yourself before heading out. Contact the Ketchum Ranger District or BLM Shoshone Field office for more information.

If you continue to venture out on the trails through this winter, stay aware and safe. Many of our trails travel through avalanche terrain. If you plan to travel through avalanche terrain, know before you go. Check out the Sawtooth Avalanche https://www.sawtoothavalanche.com for the local report and educational opportunities.

Thank you for a great season and for all your reports and enthusiasm! As you continue to head out for your adventures, feel free to report back anything you see that you think should be shared. Email me, the BCRD Trails Coordinator, Ashley Knox at aknox@brcd.org.

Happy Winter!

As always, let's not forget our manners and trail etiquette no matter where we are or how we recreate. A quick reminder- bikers yield to hikers, and hikers and bikers yield to horses, then downhill yields to uphill. If in doubt, just yield to each other and meet someone new while you talk about how lucky we are to be in such an amazing place. Bottom line is to be kind to each other and enjoy being out on the trails.

Continue to look to this site for up to date trail info. Please be aware of changing conditions and considerate of trail conditions when you head out for your adventures.

If you have questions, comments, concerns, or reports about the trails please email BCRD Trail Coordinator Ashley Knox (aknox@bcrd.org), or phone 208/578-2273. For area land management agency contact info, go to the Trail Alerts section of this site.
