Each fall Tom and I like to head to the hills to see the fall colors and enjoy the beautiful Idaho scenery. This year we chose to go to Sun Valley because we got a great "group-on" deal that we couldn't pass up.
First stop on Friday morning was "The Kneadery" for breakfast.
If you're ever in Ketchum, don't miss it.
After breakfast we went on a hike to Baker Lake. It was a beautiful day and a beautiful hike to a high mountain lake.
The aspen tree's leaves had just begun to change.
We had a picnic at Russian John's Hotsprings. The photo above was our view from the hot springs.
The view was hard to beat.
We rated the picnic a 9.5. Good food, good company, good location, great weather and water.
Our home away from home.
One of the best parts of the "group-on" deal was free use of the hotel's bikes. Sun Valley has a great greenbelt so we had a fun bike-ride.
Saturday morning we went hiking in Adam's Gulch. It was awesome!
We drove through Stanley on our way back to Boise and stopped for a picnic at Redfish Lake.
Again, a 9.5 picnic. We're still holding out for that perfect 10.
It was a crazy, warm day for the end of September and lots of people were boating and playing on the beach.
Can't wait until next year.
