Campsite at Burgdorf Guard Station

This was our spot for the weekend. We loved it. There were 2 more places available but no one came. It was just Darin, I, Henry (the host) and his wife. We felt we choosen a great spot to camp. We would come back to this place again.


We were soaked from the rain earlier in the day. A warm fire built by Darin hit the spot.

War Eagle Lookout

We tried to get to War Eagle Lookout but couldn't get through with the snow.
This fire burned in 1995. Can't believe how much this area is gone. It is pretty on the way up but once you've reached a certain area and as far as you can see there is nothing but burned trees that were once standing there.


Here is our bike that we tried to get through to get to the lookout but we ended up pushing it back out the way we came in and it was a good thing because we found out later that the rest of the way still had snow.

Elk Heaven


Burgdorf Meadow is just absolutely beautiful. We saw about 50+ Elks during our stay. This is heaven to them. The young ones were playing "tag" by running in circles around the adults and then kicking each other with their front legs. It was a sight to see. It was the perfect time of the year to see all of this.

Summitt View


It was May 6th and we were on top of the Galena Summitt (8990 ft) with a beautiful background view of the Sawtooth Mountain Range. This drive is between Ketchum to Stanley, Idaho.

Fish Hatchery


After feeding the ducks we went to the fish and game hatchery and saw lots of fish. She like this and always wanting to see more.

Feeding the Geese


Sunday Morning we all went to Ann Morrison park to feed the ducks and geese. There were a lot of geese and some had babies too. She had a great time giving BIG size bread to them. She was fun to watch.

Zoo Boise with Elise


Heidi and Elise and Mom came down to visit me last weekend. I took all of them to Zoo Boise. Elise enjoyed all the animals they had there. The Monkey were the most memoriable because they were in action of swinging and singing. She also enjoyed seeing the Turtles as you see in this picture here. The Day at the Zoo was beautiful and fun.
