One of my favorite short hikes when I lived in Boise.

Shafter Butter Picnic Area
First time going up here to actual summit. Very nice fall day, with a little snow left here and there from friday night. With the rain/snow the air was much clearer than it has been with all the fires.

Route Climbed: Followed the chair 3 cat track
Got off Chair 3 on Bogus and rode the skiers left cat track, jumped off our boards and walked the rest of the way up. We got some fun turns on the north side of Mores back into Bogus.
Nice little set of trails near Boise. Try biking the back trails in the summer (stay off the interpretive trails). You can access them from anywhere - 8th street, Rocky Canyon, Bogus Basin, the ridge road and make the trip as long as you want.
Route Climbed: Winter From South Date Climbed: January 21st/06
Snowshoed with IdahoSummits on a beautiful winter day. Combined with downhill skiing or an ascent of Shafer Butte, this can make for a long and enjoyable day in the mountains.
