Hi again for one last time. We are leaving Collier Memorial State Park heading home to Minnesota with a stop at some friends house in Sun Valley, ID. Good Sam mapping puts us on some backroads that we kind of question. They recommend we take #97 no. to Silver Lake Road (gray road on map)then road name changes to Bear Flat Lane (still gray)then on to OR 31, Old Lake Rd, Christmas Valley Hwy, finally reaching US20/US395. Anybody familiar with these roads? We will be towing a 32 ft. fifth wheel. Wondering if there are lots of hairpin turns or if there is a better way to I84 into Boise? Would be interested in hearing any opinions. Thanks again.
Every time we go to Idaho we go that way, it's a two lane country road but is good for RVs, see several DP towing and some big rigs too.
Have a full tank when you leave Collier SP. as the last time we were in Silver Lake their was no gas or fuel. Their is a station in Christmas Valley. As you head north watch for the sign to Silver Lake could be hard to see if the sun is real bright,at the end you will make a Rt. to Silver Lake go past the cemetery on your left a few miles watch for the sign to Christmas Valley ( make a left ) and in to Christmas Valley than head to 395 and go left to 20 than Rt. to Burns and than into Idaho. If DW doesn't have to have hand surgery in Sept. we will be going that way to Idaho and be on, we really enjoy that ride. Have a good trip, Jay
Forgot! lots of stations and eating places in Burns and Ontario.
