bogus basin?? i dunno.. PM simmers, he will know all there is to know about caldwell

 

[-justice-]

there isn't much. I'm from Boise and Caldwell is an outlying suburb with a horrible reputattion. Your best three bets for skiing are bogus basin, McCall/Brundage, and Tamarack. If you're looking for park skiing then tamarack is your best bet as the bogus basin park is always lacking. if you want pow then mccall is your best bet. Keep in mind that, from Caldwell, Bogus is about 90 minutes away, Tamarack about 3 hrs and McCall about 4 hours. all 3 resorts have web sites if you wanna take a look. Just goggle the resort name (like so) ____________ Idaho.

I grew up in Southern California, but I'd spend all winter in Nampa and ski at Bogus everyday as a kid. Both sides of my family are from Nampa/Kuna.
