Jump Creek Recreation Area, Idaho

This is a fantastic short little hike following a cool little desert creek. The falls are really cool and following the trail up and above the falls leads to some cool stuff above the fall, but I'll leave that to you to explore. There are fish in the creek, but don't expect to catch anything longer than 6 inches. It's also often quite difficult to access the creek because of the heavy brush and thick foliage, so unless you're ready for a challenge, as far as fishing goes, just go for a cool hike.

It's a nice place to get out and hike around. Getting there can be tough, as there are not many direction signs along the way, so double check your directions. There is a funny skeleton warning tourists to not trespass their private land next to the hiking area, but whatever. Take a selfie and go have a good hike. There are numerous trails. Be safe, and take extra water. Look around for the right trail.

Jump creek is a really fun place to bring your family. If you want an easy hike (my four year daughter did it) with beautiful Idaho scenery, and a georgious end of the trail, then visit jump creek. Bring a sack lunch and enjoy some food with your feet in the cold springs water. There is also a more difficult hike for more experienced hikers. It goes up and around and you can get a great view of the falls (the harder isn't how to get to the falls and pool, just a great view and workout) There is a bathroom, but no running water. It's a great time, but leave by 9 pm, or you wilk get a $150 ticket ( my friend just got one).

It is one of my favorite places to go. You have it all: camping, hiking, climbing, caves, swimming, exploring, creeks, and full of beautiful. All ages can go and have fun, from baby to elderly. Experienced to no experience.

Great place to go hiking and take pictures. Beware of large crowds on the weekends and evenings. Not a good place to stay late at night. Lots of poison ivy in the summer to watch out for.
