As with the Trinity-Alps, the Sawtooths are a little known gem. It is one of the most scenic areas in scenic Idaho. It is also often overlooked in favor of the bigger parks like Glacier, Yellowstone, Tetons, and so forth. I did two different day hikes, one to Sawtooth Lake, rated by readers of Backpacker Magazine as the best place to take a dip. I myself wimped out when a small iceberg floated past me. Beautiful water surrounded by striking mountains make for a nice place to sit back and relax. The Sawtooths are a place that I hope to return to in the future – particularly to do some cross-country travel to remote lakes and peaks. Here are a few pictures:
