Hike in nameless slot canyon, Idaho
10/29/2016
There is still a feel of the wild frontier in Idaho, where spectacular destinations are often unsung. Don't bother looking up a name for this intricately carved canyon; it doesn't have one. Nor does it have an entry in the hiking guidebooks. Only locals know the rugged network of backroads needed to access it.
This surreal canyon is formed from the lava rock that carpets southern Idaho, cut and polished by millennia of spring floods roading down from the Rocky Mountains to the north. This geological curiosity is rarely visited, and that's just the way I like it.
