MOUNTAIN RANGES Surrounded by the Rocky Mountains, we don’t have to go far to find mountaintop winter activities. If skiing or tubing is your idea of winter fun, Bogus Basin is just a short drive away, and heading to McCall makes a fun weekend getaway. ... AND RIVERS Not only are we surrounded by the Payette and Boise rivers, Idaho is also home to the deepest gorge in North America: Hells Canyon. Take that, Arizona! 1. Divide beef into 16 evenly sized balls. 2. Rip cheese into roughly equal pieces, creating 16 equal portions. 3. Using your index finger, create a small indentation in each ball. 4. Fill indention with cheese and pinch meat around to seal.Then gently form balls into 3/4-inch-thick patties. Season patties. Directions • 2 lbs ground chuck beef, 20% lean • 8 slices melting cheese (like American, Swiss, Muenster, or cheddar)

July 22 is National Hammock Day! Sit back, relax, and soak up that summer feeling. The hammock is thought to have been invented by the Mayans, who used the bark of the hamack tree to weave their hanging structures. From there, the trend spread throughout Central and South America, and, as we enjoy it today, hammocking eventually became a popular pastime worldwide. When setting up your hammock, find two sturdy trees that can bear its weight and be kind to the bark, or you can use a stand in your backyard for an even easier setup. With a book in hand and a cold drink, you’ll be celebrating this holiday exactly as it’s intended.
