Stanley, Idaho is a small town of 100 or so residents that balloons to thousands in the summertime. Stanley is located in the Sawtooth Valley surrounded by 1,000 miles of wilderness. In fact, the Sawtooth National Recreation Area is the largest recreation area in the United States! Consequently, there is a substantial amount of outdoor things to do in Stanley.
EXPLORE!Hikes in Stanley, Idaho
The last time I visited Stanley, Idaho was eleven years ago. I had hoped to visit last year during my three weeks in Idaho, but I was too early as it was still snowing. Considering I should have named my blog, Chasing 70 Degrees, snow is not in my future if I can help it.
Anyway, I finally arrived and spent several days camping and hiking in Stanley and and caught up with a few relatives.
HAPPY HIKING!
