NORTH SHORE PICNIC AREA

North Shore Picnic Area

## Overview

A stay at the historic Redfish Cabin is like having your own private Idaho!
Nestled in the trees above the northern shore of Redfish Lake at an elevation
of 6,570 feet, the historic (Civilian Conservation Corps 1930's era) cabin
offers a perfect getaway for a small family or group of friends. The cabin is
warm and cozy, the views are breathtaking, recreation opportunities abound and
starry nights provide a gateway to heaven. And you can share it all with your
canine family member.  
  
  
The Sawtooth National Recreation Area was established in 1972 for its natural,
scenic, historic, pastoral, and fish and wildlife values. Redfish Lake is by
far the most popular location in the area; however, a fall or winter visit
provides a totally different experience than the "Coney Island" atmosphere of
summer. Available only in the fall and winter, this is a special time of year
where few visitors come to enjoy the beauty and solitude of the lake and
surrounding mountain peaks.  

## Recreation

The cabin provides easy access to a variety of recreation opportunities. In
the fall, trailheads to Bench Lakes, Redfish Creek, Fishhook Creek, and
Marshall Lake, all within half a mile of the cabin, offer access to fabulous
hiking or horseback riding. Snowshoeing and cross-country skiing on un-groomed
trails near the lake offer excellent opportunities for winter recreation.
Quick access to the groomed Stanley to Smiley Creek snowmobile route affords
motorized recreation opportunities. Whether its photography, bird watching,
climbing a mountain or sitting by the fire with a book, there's an activity
for all.

## Natural Features

Named for the brilliant sockeye salmon that return each year after a 900 mile
journey from the sea, Redfish Lake is the largest lake in the Sawtooth
National Recreation Area. These fish were in such numbers that it's said the
lake would shimmer red. Now endangered, most of the sockeye returning to the
lake are bred in the nearby Sawtooth Fish Hatchery.  
  
The 217,000 acre Sawtooth Wilderness provides the backdrop for this dramatic
setting, including the peaks which frame the lake at its south end: Mount
Heyburn at 10,229' (3,118 m) and Grand Mogul at 9,733' (2967 m). Known for
clear air, clean water and classic alpine beauty, this wilderness is home to a
diversity of wildlife including bald eagles, osprey, elk and deer, gray wolf,
mountain goat, and the elusive wolverine.  
  
Prehistoric hunters inhabited the Redfish Lake area as early as 9,500 years
ago, using the Redfish rock shelter as cover while they hunted elk, deer,
antelope, mammoth, bison and, later, fished for salmon.  

## Nearby Attractions

The nearby small town of Stanley (5 miles north) provides a rural western
atmosphere with limited amenities including lodging, dining, fuel and
groceries in winter. To the south, Smiley Creek Lodge (25 miles) offers a
restaurant, lodging and snowmobile rentals. Popular activities in the Sawtooth
Valley this time of year include hunting, hiking, cross-country skiing,
snowmobiling, and hot springing along the Salmon River.
