This was our second day of riding this area after spending a wonderful evening at the Blue Heron Inn. I've got some pics of the Inn at the bottom of the page. This is a beautiful place to stay and Dave & Claudia are wonderfully gracious hosts. The first day we rode from Kelly Canyon Ski Area. On this ride, which was 98% on a gravel road (FSRD #206) I was searching for the trail heads of Burns Creek Canyon and whatever else I could find along the way. I stopped and talked to several that told me what I could expect on the trail. I only road a mile  up Burns Creek Canyon and peaked at the trail head to Black Canyon.

Summary: We had an absolutely beautiful day and even though I didn't get to ride much as far as trails go, just exploring along the Snake River was a real treat. I'm anxious to return and ride a few more of the seeminly endless trails in this area.
