Information
Snow transforms and softens the rugged Craters of the Moon landscape and a winter visit offers excellent opportunities for solitude in pristine and unusual surroundings. The 7-mile loop drive is closed after the first snowfall and is groomed for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing with no fees charged. The gentle grades make it ideal for beginning and intermediate skiers. Cinder cones provide a challenge for advanced skiers willing to climb a little bit to ski down hills, or a moderate hike for snowshoers. Winter Ecology Workshops on snowshoes are offered on Saturdays and Snow School on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Call for reservations(208)527-1300
