North Fork





Our campground is in the Sawtooth National Forest, a few miles north of Ketchum/Sun Valley, ID.  We camped here in ’07; T’s been here several times.  This time our visit is much enhanced by friends Gary and Nancy, long term residents who winter in LHC; they’re members of our potluck group.  Also, Nancy and T are in the same book club, and Nancy plays Pickleball.  We met them for cocktails one night and had an excellent dinner at their home another night.

Gary owned and operated Grumpy’s, a funky, quaint tavern/restaurant in Ketchum, for many years.  He sold it awhile back but it’s still going strong and doing well.





The Big Wood River flows by our campsite, playing nature’s fine background music.  There are no other campers in sight and we love it.  No cell phone signal here but we’re only 10 minutes from town so no biggie.  Big Wood combines with Little Wood to form the Malad which flows into the Snake which flows into the Columbia which flows into the Pacific.

  1. I was working on the 1998 38' Dutch Star Motorhome this weekend and thinking about a road trip but now after I reading your blog my urge has subsided. Thanks again for the great pics
    If you see Nancy and Gary again tell them hi from me.
