Quarantine Outdoor Scavenger Hunt

Get out in the fresh air and put your observation skills to the test
Need something to do while in quarantine? Embark on an outdoor scavenger hunt around your neighborhood. Challenge your friends, family members that are far away, or neighbors to do the same, and exchange photos! This is a great way to get out of the house and connect with those you care about, and do something with your time. 

 Below are a few clues you can use for your outdoor scavenger hunt. Get creative and come up with some of your own too! 

 1. A sign of spring
2. A sign of our Coronavirus times
3. A house or building feature that you like
4. Something that needs repair
5. Something that strikes you as humorous/ironic
Spending time outdoors will lift your spirits!

One Year in Boise!

  View from 8th Street Extension Trail  A beautiful morning walk in the foothills  This week marks my anniversary of living in Boise for one year! I can hardly believe that this time last year, I was arriving in the City of Trees, strolling along the Boise Greenbelt in awe, and taking photos of the river. In some ways, it feels inconceivable that a year has gone by, but in other ways, the amount of things I've done and places I've gone in Idaho this past year seem impressive. It seems like a common theme that individual moments and days can seem slow, but years fly by.  In honor of my one-year anniversary of living in Boise, I jotted down a list of some of my favorite memories of exploring this city and state.   Memories of this past year (in no particular order): Floating the Boise River twice Showing my parents Boise (driving up to Bogus Basin, running a half marathon, the farmer's market, biking the Greenbelt,  hiking Ridge to Rivers trails, etc) Le...

I was originally attempting to hike the Shoofly Creek Quick Loop as described on Stueby's Outdoor Journal , but somehow missed the last turn-off to the two-track. Just as we were about to turn around to find the two track, we came upon a small parking lot and a sign for the Perjue Canyon trail, so we decided to explore. We hiked about 5 miles of the 8.4 mile out-and-back trail , and were treated to the Frank Perjue cabin and a great trail in a slot canyon, a feature typical of the Owyhees.  The gray sky indicated winter was on the horizon (the next morning it snowed!), and there were only a few other people out. The trees along the creek in the canyon had mostly dropped their leaves, and it was a neat perspective to have rocky canyon walls towering ab...
