Heading back down Borah Peak, The Top of Idaho! Fighting depression after my marriage ended, I took the day that would have been my 12th wedding anniversary and I made that day about doing something challenging and amazing! #adventure
Looking down at the Salmon River.
We got up early before the sun to be able to relax in these warm springs. The pools are deep enough to where you can lay down and submerge most of your body. And you can't beat the view! Hike was short but a steep and rocky one.
