Connected in all three directions by recognized scenic byways: the Ponderosa Pine, Salmon River and Sawooth Scenic Byways to be precise the natural beauty is so abundant along the way that the kids screaming or engine steaming won’t even phase you.

Expect a lot of twists and turns, a few mountain passes, beautiful rivers, timbered corridors, and alpine vistas on perfectly maintained highways as you head into the majesty of the Sawtooth Mountains and the Stanley Basin.
