White Clouds Wilderness Area

Idaho is home to some of the newest Wilderness in the nation including the beautiful Boulder-White Clouds complex of central Idaho. These protected areas, designated in August 2015, preserve approximately 276,000 acres of high mountain backcountry with crystal lakes and abundant wildlife. The BLM manages 450 acres in the White Clouds Wilderness. This mountainous and dry area features hiking, fishing, hunting, and equestrian use, as well as opportunities to just get away and enjoy some solitude, great vistas and the natural environment with minimal impacts.
