Hulls Gulch Nature Trail
Jun 1, 2007 by Isabrl from Boise
Overall Rating: 8 User Rating Score: 8

  • I love the trails. All of the trails!
  • Nothing, except people who do not clean up after their dogs.

“Hull's Gulch has shown damage from heavy use this winter(06-07)because of random rain, which made trails muddy at unexpected times, and some "re-designers", who did not understand gravity and water flow. However, the repairs and new signs are a great help in training new users. I would like to see some signs regarding water hemlock (deadly poison) and poison ivy (very inconvenient!) growths. I am not suggesting herbicides, but only warning signs, which will help educate people in identifying these plants elsewhere. Overall, the trails are getting plenty of use, which translates to more voices for open space! ”

Lucky Peak State Park
Aug 15, 2006 by Tina from Meridian
Overall Rating: 6 User Rating Score: 6

  • Yea for Idaho.
  • Lucky Peak was a poor choice to represent Idaho.

“Lucky Peak is a lot of fun however, don't go to the "sandy point" because although it has a large fountain and a sandy beach it is known for having large breakouts of swimmers itch and could be called a community pee pond. Mostly small children go there. After last years tragic deaths of an entire herd of elk that fell through the ice on the lake and all died; there has been parts of the lake that is contaminated, don't worry though they took a crane and found almost all of the elk and drug their waterlogged bodies from the contaminated lake!!! So have fun, watch out for elk parts, and don't drink the water... ”
