My friend and I backpacked the Toxaway - Pettit Loop in the Idaho Sawtooths last summer. We called ourselves "2 Blondes and their Backpacks"! The greatest elevation was approx 10,000 ft and Alice Lake at the top was breathtaking! In the first picture of us, I'm the one on the right. These are her photos, so there are more of me than her. I cannot find my photos and I am really upset. I have looked everywhere. We had such a great time! Here's the link to the album: goo.gl/photos/FrzS5jGxPVYXirsY9I would like to go again either with my husband so he can experience it, or with one of the Idaho Trails Association work groups. Such beauty! Watch out for the chipmunks though. They are AGGRESSIVE. They will literally take food right out of your hands.

Thanks for the pictures. Very nice. Last summer I did some reconnaissance in Idaho, around Stanley and the Bighorn Crags trailhead including Yellowjacket Lake. it's beautiful and rugged, definitely on my list of places to hike, hopefully this summer. Right now I'm looking into Seven Devils (Riggins) and Boulder Chain Lakes (White Clouds). Ever been to either of those places?

Right now I'm looking into Seven Devils (Riggins) and Boulder Chain Lakes (White Clouds). Ever been to either of those places? I personally have not. I haven't done any hiking in Northern Idaho (YET!). I believe my husband has been to Seven Devils. I'll have to ask him. I did more backpacking in college, then settled into raising kids. My husband and son did more backpacking in Scouts and when my kids got old enough to care for themselves, we started going together. I need to catch up!

Asked....no he has not done Seven Devils. AND...as I am so bad at geography, I realize Challis area (Boulder Chain Lakes) is not as north as I thought. You'll have to forgive me. But no, neither of us have done those hikes....probably something we will look into now!
