Discovery Hill
Discovery Hill is Salmon’s destination for getting outdoors to hike, mountain bike, horseback ride, dirt bike, play disc golf and even explore a 1.6-mile Podcast Trail. This area’s exceptional riding opportunities provide riders with smooth riding opportunities through rolling sage hills set against the equally stunning backdrops of the Continental Divide and Salmon River valley.
The Bureau of Land Management’s Salmon Field Office typically sponsors an Earth Day cleanup and trail work event in April, and members of Salmon Idaho Mtn Bike Association (SIMBA) and Youth Employment Program (YEP) put hundreds of hours into readying the trails for May’s 12-and 24-Hours of Disco endurance race. If you want to help, contact Travis Seaberg, BLM recreation program manager, @ gseaberg@blm.gov.
For those people who love our Salmon Challis Trails and want to contribute in a different way, your donation can help us by:
· Providing match. The Salmon Challis Trails Group has been working with Lemhi County in applying for Recreational Trails Program (RTP) grants and we must cover 20% of the cost. By making a tax deductible donation you, the trail user, ensure these projects move forward.
· Supporting volunteers. YEP maintains a trailer with tools for volunteers. We also provide items like T-shirts, hats, water bottles, and food at our volunteer workdays.
· Training. Donations will help us provide first aid, CPR, saw training and more to ensure the safety and well-being of our trail stewards.
