Buckle up for an unforgettable winter adventure at Tamarack, a hidden gem in the rugged blue mountains of Idaho. As it’s a less frequented part of the state, it’s ideal for adrenaline junkies seeking fun away from the crowd. Skiers, most significantly, will have a pleasant time navigating the mountain at Tamarack, which features a vertical drop of over 2,760 ft (841 m). Snowshoeing, mountain biking, and zipline tours are other activities you can try here. Plus, you can visit the nearby Ponderosa State Park for an afternoon stroll or Goose Creek Falls, about a 30-minute drive from here. Are you planning a day on the slopes?
