Stanley, Idaho and route 21 north










Views off of route 21 north in Idaho crossing through the Sawtooth Mountains, the Salmon River, and the Salmon-Challis National Forest. This is a beautiful stretch of land. You can see desert areas, grassland, savannah, high peak alpine mountains, and dusty foothills. The rocks in the mountains are green colored in areas. Some of the desert buttes are a deep pink and red color like those in Arizona or southern California.

Route 21 (and 93) are very under-traveled and I highly recommend taking a day to go through this area. There is white water rafting, fly fishing, and lots of beautiful camping areas.
