Overview Bogus Basin, the remarkable recreation area in Boise's backyard,
has grown from a small ski hill with a rope tow into a large
holiday ski destination with seven chairlifts, three lodges, night
skiing and Nordic trails. Rental, repair and retail shops are on
site, as are a ski and snowboarding school and tubing hill. During
the summer, a frisbee golf course is set up on the thawed-out
trails, and nature hikes and children's camps are offered. Only
forty minutes' drive from downtown Boise, Bogus Basin is a popular
day or weekend excursion from the city.
