The Idaho Soaktennial Trail Official Guidebook (The Hot Springs Trail Part 4 of 4) The Idaho Soaktennial Trail is an 1,100 mile long-distance backpacking route that shadows the Idaho Centennial Trail. The ICT is a long-distance National Scenic Trail that spans south to north across the entire state of Idaho, however, it has not yet been fully signed or developed and many of its miles still remain wild. The Idaho Soaktennial Trail route described in this guide contains many alternates, detours, reroutes, and updates that have been made to the ICT and diverges often from the traditional route to visit remote summits, idyllic resupply towns, historic resorts, and wilderness Hot Springs. This Official Guidebook provides you with a full set of detailed and updated maps plus complete logistics of the trail. It addresses safety concerns, offers first-hand advice and tips, gives resupply options, highlights hot and cold spring water sources, and includes many official options to visit lakes, campgrounds, and other nearby features along the way. Idaho has more natural Hot Springs than any other US state and the Soaktennial Trail will take you to 51 of them. The Idaho Soaktennial Trail was pioneered solely by its author and first successfully thru-soaked in 2014.
