Jeep enthusiasts frequently head to Yankee Boy Basin Trail because of its fantastic off-roading experience. During the late spring and early summer period, it’s also a highly scenic spot known for its lush wildflowers that create a kaleidoscope of stunning colors. It’s also worth visiting to check out the views of Camp Bird Mine, Twin Falls, and more.
