We stayed an the Pioneer Inn which was very cozy and had a welcoming atmosphere. Even their dog Mr. Lucky made us feel at home.
The Y-Inn had a large accommodating meeting room that was definitely more than we expected. The service was wonderful!
I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Challis. We got some wonderful feedback from the community, everyone was very gracious to share their stories. It was inspiring to be in a community that felt very caring. This trip has revealed some very isolated communities. The closest food stamp office is in Salmon that is at least 50 miles away, and anywhere else is at least 2 hours away. That doesn't sound like much until you consider the quality of the mountain roads in icy or snowy conditions.
This is a very beautiful part of Idaho, I can see why many would fall in love with it.
I heard someone say that it is hard to find good produce in their community, they have to drive elsewhere. At the same time we also heard that they are working on building up a farmers market that they just started last year. Apparently there were at least 55 vendors, most being produce vendors!
I sure wish we could do some more traveling so we can go there during the summer as well!
