Blackmare Lake, Salmon River Mountains, Valley County, Idaho

    User input for Blackmare Lake, Salmon River Mountains, Valley County, Idaho:

Jason Wright:
The trail to Blackmare Lake is in very poor shape.  The fire last year weakened the trees and the wind took down many of them.  There are several 24-36' logs across the trail preventing horse travel.  Hikers can make the trek, but expect to be climbing over a lot of down timber.  The trails themselves are not terrible, but they are very loose with decomposed granite sand.
The other big problem with the trail is that past the signs at the first bridge, there is absolutely no direction as to where the trails will take you or how far you are along the trails.
