bruneau canyon印象

Read about the overlook on tripadvisor, went there to "judge for ourselves", and it is definately worth the drive. It's about 18 miles from the town of Bruneau,Idaho. Normal road, only the last approx. 6 miles go over a dirt/gravel road, not too bad at all. And unlike some revieuws say, it is easy to find, keep your eyes open and watch the signs.

When I was staying in Nampa, ID on business, I asked where there was something unexpected to see. I was told to check out the Bruneau Dunes and Canyon. I had never been to Idaho before and had no idea what was there to explore. I went to the Dunes first and was told by the ranger in the visitor’s center to head out to the canyon. She told me how to get there (where the turn off was from the main road) and to expect a rough road. After turning where I was told to, I drove about 18 miles on a partially paved, then gravel/dirt road. It seemed to take forever since there was nothing around the area to really look at. All of a sudden there it was. I was so pleasantly surprised with the view before me. I got out of my car and walked around the rim which had a chain linked fence separating you from falling into the canyon. It was so quiet and peaceful since no one was there to make any noise. There was no charge to enter the canyon area like there was at the Dunes. I guess no one from the parks would really want to travel out there to collect an honesty envelope, I know I would not want to drive that road to see if anyone had been there. I would suggest this jaunt to anyone who wants to experience the un-expected.

Bei dem südlich von Bruneau gelegenen Canyon handelt es sich um die fast 100km lange und bis zu 610m tiefe Schlucht des Bruneau Rivers, deren aus Lavaschichten bestehende Wände fast senkrecht empor steigen. Die Schlucht ist stellenweise so schmal, so daß man einen Stein hinüber werfen kann. nahe der Mündung des Bruneau Rivers in den Snake River liegt der Bruneau Dunes Park mit bis zu gut 140m hohen Sanddünen, die unvermittelt aus wüstenhafter Umgebung herauswachsen.

On several Rand McNally maps I had seen something marked as "scenic wild canyon" or similar south of the small town Bruneau. Digging deeper into this, I came up with the Bruneau Canyon and that BLM had developed a viewpoint out there.I had a hard time finding it, however, as all I found was a sign in the town of Bruneau pointing south along Hot Springs Road saying 18 miles to viewpoint.After 12 miles the pavement ends as you enter some Airforce bombing ground. A sign warns about things that may drop from above. Continue and be sure to keep right, or you might enter the actual bombing range.After 3,5 miles on dirt/gravel you (temporarily?) leave the military proving ground and come to a marked BLM turnoff towards the viewpoint. This gravel sideroad was actually in better condition than the one across the military area.Another 3 miles brings you to the viewpoint, the total distance from Bruneau thus being closer to 19 miles. Not much to find here when it comes to facilities, but there for sure is a major hole in the ground of Idaho!I have found other small treasures i Idaho and written about them at:http://sites.google.com/site/unknownscenicsites/Introduction/idaho

The Bruneau River flows through this narrow rough canyon and you can imagine the problems that the immigrants faced when they tried to ford the river. Easy drive to the observation point.

It takes time and frustration to get to this canyon because the roads are not well mark and the signs to the Canyon are not clear. As many places in Idaho you need to go several times so you are familiar with the area. Foreigners are not much welcome by Idaho locals. I tried to find a road to explore the Canyon but never got to it. I guess you need to be a detective to see the wonders in Idaho if you are not bombed by the airforce or hunted first ha ha ha.

You think you must have missed it. The last section is gravel road. It's a natural wonder. C J Strike reservoir is nearby. Good fishing

nothing to do ,but the view.no picnic tables and no grass to have a snack or lunch.kids will be bored,because it's not safe to let them run around.

I heard about this outlook but was pleasantly surprised when I saw it. The ride in was a little tough but well worth it. Even tho I was riding my Virago 750 still made it...just had to go slow.
