...ndisputed reputation for the Best Snow in Idaho.
A short eight-mile drive from McCall, Brundage has been a favorite of Idahoans for over 46 years.

Fortunately, with 1,800 vertical feet and more than 1,500 acres of in-bound terrain, there's plenty of time to enjoy both the snow and the spect...

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. ...
