    Zim's Hot Springs - New Meadows, Idaho…read more When you first pull up to Zim's Hot Springs, you'll notice the camp spots right away -- pretty cool to see! I could definitely see myself coming back for an overnight stay next time. That said, some of the features listed on their website don't quite match what's actually there. The "bar" is basically an open Gatorade/Coca-Cola setup with a fan behind it -- more like a refreshment station than a bar. The game room, though, was surprisingly nice for what it has and adds a fun touch to the place. I was a little disappointed when I wanted to grab a beer and found out glass isn't allowed (which I totally understand), but it would've been nice to have another option. On the positive side, the place was clean, the pool was great, and the hot tub was super relaxing. Sitting there on a crisp autumn day in the mountains -- you really can't beat that view or that vibe. The meditation music was excellent. The service was nothing special. They did their job. They gave me a basket. They took my money and told me have a good day. Overall, Zim's is a solid 4 out of 5 for me. A few tweaks and updates to match their online descriptions, and it'd easily be a five-star stop. Definitely worth checking out for yourself!

    I haven't been to many hot springs yet, but this little getaway was quite refreshing. We were…read morevisiting McCall this past week and a local friend took us to experience this hot spring. It was cold outside and I was a bit concerned, but they kept the changing area warm. I would recommend bringing your robe and some sandals or slides. We grabbed a few dried fruits to snack on, on the way home. The girl at the counter was very accommodating and kind

    We went out exploring. Looking for a lake we have talked about for year's. Found the lake but we…read morealso found some really cool places along the way. Joseph was poppin. The weather was also decent. Joseph is no fool. While it was a weekend, the other towns nearby were all but shut down. Not Joseph. Most of the shops were open. Restaurants full of people. Sidewalks bustling with pedestrians. We had other plans, we traveled a couple hours to get here and still had the drive back. We literally had only planned on stopping at the post office in Joseph. I thought it would be funny to mail my Uncle Joseph in California from Joseph, Oregon. Apparently, I'm the only one who thinks I'm funny. My Wife is immune to my hilarious nature. Although Joseph is a little out of the way, we are planning on a summer trip back. There was so much to see in Joseph that we would need to park and walk around to see everything. We love camping in the area, so Joseph is just another reason to come back this way.

    Want to get away from it all and relax in one of the most scenic places in Oregon? Then Joseph,…read moreOregon may be the place for you. This little hidden jewel of a town is located in NE Oregon. The city of Joseph was incorporated in 1887 and named after Nez Perce Chief Joseph who is buried there at Wallowa Lake. The population of Joseph is approximately 1000. The economy was primarily based on agriculture and timber until the 80's when 3 Bronze foundries opened and artists and galleries came to inhabit the town. The streets are lined with beautiful side walks and life size bronze statues. There are many art galleries and shops with unique items. A couple miles out of town is Wallowa Lake which offers camping, shopping, hiking, boating, restaurants, a tram and wildlife viewing in a breath taking setting. In July, Joseph hosts the Chief Joseph Days rodeo, in August the Bronze, Blues and Brews Festival and in September Alpenfest which is a Swiss-Bavarian festival at Wallowa Lake. People refer to Wallowa Lake as "Oregon's Little Switzerland". The people of are so nice here too. I could go on and on about this town and the area so if you have questions feel free to ask. Joseph is amazing! 2015-80

    This site is where the creation story of the Nez Perce takes place. The story tells of a giant…read moremonster that ate all the animals. Coyote, a clever trickster, defeated the monster and saved the animals that had been eaten. After the monster died, Coyote cut him up and distributed his body parts throughout the land to create the different tribes. Coyote used the blood from the heart to create the Nez Perce within the Kamiah valley. The heart, liver, and ribs of the monster still remain in Kamiah valley as a testament to the story. The heart and liver are two basalt outcroppings within a relatively flat terrace along the Clearwater River. This Nez Perce story not only explains the origin of the people within the valley, but the origin of unique landforms at East Kamiah as well. This is a peaceful place to visit and to walk around. It has picnic benches and tables, and it's a great place to enjoy a sunny day. The basalt mound that comprises the heart is slowly being filled up with vegetation, so I'm not sure if the NPS site will stop it from being eroded or let nature take its course.

    A good place to stop for a walk, quiet reflection, and to view the Heart Of The Monster. There are…read morerestrooms, a private parking lot, doggie waste bags, trash cans, and signs telling the story of the Native American legend. It isn't something I'd drive out of my way to visit but it's here and it's protected. The Nez Perce river runs next to the park. The legend is: For the Nez Perce, the story of their people begins at the 'Heart of the Monster.' A monster was eating all of the animals. Coyote fooled the monster into swallowing him. Using a set of stone knives that he had brought with him, Coyote cut apart the monster from the inside to release all of the animals that were trapped in the monster. Upon emerging from the remains of the monster, Coyote cut it up and threw the pieces all over the land, creating the Indian people who inhabit the land. Fox asked Coyote about the land around the monster, it had no people, what was he to do? As Coyote washed the blood of the monster off his hands, the drops became the Nez Perce River.

    Absolutely one of our best experiences. My daughter was beyond excited expecially with so much…read moreauthenticity in the clothing. She wasn't expecting a full shoot out (nearther were we). Everything was so great, so memorable, My daughter dressed up and fit right in, all the volunteers (yes, everyone who took part is a volunteer) wer so kind expecially to the kids in the crowd. We can't believe we learned so much and in such a fun way too. Few helpful tips, we went middle of June and there were soooooo many mosquitoes idk if I just want thinking, or they just tend to eat me alive in the evenings only but bring lots of bug spray. There's 2 cars that have windows and 2 that don't so if it's a full ride be prepared dress appropriately depending on the time of year u visit. Like I mentioned earlier these are all volunteers, they make their clothing and provide their own weapons and blanks. The upkeep of the train and tracks is very costly so donations are very appropriate. Be sure to bring plenty of smaller bills and most of the town would prefer cash purchases as well. There's also a flea market held here so check for that. There's also mining for Gold lessons and some areas to try it first hand. If you find real Gold flakes you can keep up to 3 for 5$ per person because it's coming from an Oregon State Park. There is a lift on the train to help with any handicap needs, and on that note if you end up in Bakers City, OR (were we drove through to get here) is an amazing playground where inclusion of all ability types was number 1 in design. This entire experience was so great, worth Every penny for the steam engine ticket and worth the money we donated at the end.

    wonderful day thank you for all the work getting a wheelchair on the train,,the trip was fun the…read moreconductor very good Love his all aboard and information, laughter and fun for everyone,, we will order snow for another year,,
