Sawtooth Mountains

Desperately seeking escape from the Chicago concrete jungle, a few weeks ago my buddy John inquired about flying out to Idaho for a visit.

As one of my long-time besties, bro-code protocol mandates I do all I can to show him a good time. Motivated to ensure his visit would be a good one, I immediately began planning a multi-day backcountry camping trip deep into the Sawtooth Wilderness Area.

The mountains are magnificent; they are bold and reign supreme. Wandering the trails, John and I felt small and insignificant.

Beautiful as any image may be, pictures simply do not fully capture the beauty of these remote areas.
