Sawtooth Wilderness | Horse Pack Trips | Trail Rides

THE SAWTOOTH WILDERNESS

Sawtooth Wilderness - Pristine BeautyThe Sawtooth Wilderness lies in the high country of central Idaho, about an hour's drive from Sun Valley. This is a wilderness of spectacular beauty, where granite mountains reach up to touch clear, azure skies and are reflected back again in gem-blue lakes. The three hundred miles of trail lead you through glacial valleys, alpine meadows and snow-fed streams. This area was set aside in 1972 by Congress to be preserved for you and your children.

Let us show you the Sawtooths in person. We at Mystic Saddle Ranch have been bringing visitors into the Sawtooth Wilderness since 1969. Young children and inexperienced riders feel comfortable with our gentle horses. Our trained guides are there to help you enjoy your wilderness surroundings.

Enjoy fishing? We will lead you to the best streams and lakes. We'll even give you pointers on landing that trout!

Your guide will show you the way to the top of a mountain peak or to a seldom-visited lake. A quick swim will refresh you on a warm afternoon, and there will be plenty of time to photograph the wildflowers or just relax and read beside a crystal lake.

On our multi-day pack trips, we will pamper you with hearty Western meals, including homemade breads and jams, fresh fruits and vegetables, and delicious meats. The chill of a crisp mountain morning is soon forgotten over flapjacks, bacon and eggs, and hot coffee!

Companionship, solitude, adventure, and relaxation are all to be found in the clean forested environment of the mountains. This is our home. We can show you where the big one got away, the hidden meadow that lies waiting to be discovered, and the adventure within yourself! Come and join us!

Your Outfitters,
JEFF AND DEBBIE BITTON
