Swan Valley, DN43hk46
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Swan Valley is a town along the Snake River below the big Palisades Dam. This operating spot is in National Park land directly along the river, down in somewhat of a slot canyon where it narrows near this spot. Steep hills on either side might restrict your possibilities but the canyon points NW-to-SE and gave me contacts from Portland to Seattle. Try using meteor scatter here - it has a good chance of working much better than waiting for 6m skip. Driving directions: Drive north from the city of Swan Valley on Hwy 26.
Restrictions: This is a busy road; expect lots of traffic as this is the only road that gives access from the south side of the Snake River. The recreation area near the Palisades Dam attracts hunters, fishermen, ATV and horse trailers. Dalton Hill, DN43fi05
![]() ![]() ![]() Kepps Crossing Road runs along the top of a good-looking ridge line. This spot is one possible turnout. Driving directions: NF-077 also known as Skyline Rd, also known as Kepps Crossing Rd.
Ninemile Knoll, DN43aw35
![]() ![]() ![]() It's not much of a hill but looks like a wide open spot with no trees and easy drive far from the mountains, on the satellite view. White Owl Butte, DN43fs23
![]() ![]() ![]() Satellite view suggests this is reasonably accessible from White Owl Road. |
