McCall is in a unique position being central to some of Idaho’s most wild and scenic rivers. Flowing right through town is the Payette River. Starting high in the mountains, the North Fork flows first into Payette Lake then south into Cascade Reservoir before meeting up with the South Fork in Banks. Eventually, the Payette … Continued
Rock climbing has its own unique vocabulary. Trad, belay, beta, crux, protection, jug. If you are not familiar with these terms, you aren’t alone. But as any rock climber will tell you, the lingo is the least challenging aspect to the sport. “It is such an amazing feeling once you get up to the top,” … Continued
Who doesn’t love good old fashioned burger? While it is easy to discount a burger as “boring,” in and around McCall you will find they are anything but.

Writer Arthur Plotnik once called the ponderosa pine “a Clint Eastwood of a tree.” These massive pines are rugged, lean, and hearty, living 500 years or more. Ironically, these resilient trees have a softer side. The bark of a ponderosa smells like butterscotch (yes, seriously!). It is easy to find ponderosa pines dotting the landscape, … Continued

It isn’t often we get to witness the birth of a new sport. In recent history, only a handful come to mind, the most notable being snowboarding.

It is often easy to forget the work and vision of those who came before us. As we walk through downtown McCall with an ice cream cone in hand, we rarely remember that this vibrant town started as a 160 acre homestead. Posting a picture to Instagram of your hike to Louis Lake doesn’t automatically … Continued
Payette Lake is a scenic show-stopper. This deep alpine lake right in the heart of downtown McCall is perfect for summer boating, sailing, jet skiing, and swimming. When it comes to kayaking, canoeing, and paddle boarding, however, locals know that Payette Lake plays second fiddle to the North Fork of the Payette River. This lazy … Continued
We are in awe (serious awe) of the epic downhill mountain bikers who tackle the diverse terrain around McCall. For those with the skills, it is definitely worth a try.
