Every farm has a barn, and every barn has a story. Idaho was built on agriculture and farming, and barns have always played a vital role in that history. Barns come in all shapes and sizes; many are still functional today; others have seen better days. The funny thing is, we love each and every one of them.

Some seek thrills, some seek records, some push themselves to the edge of physical and mental endurance. But for most Idaho climbers, simply standing on the top of Idaho’s tallest mountains is reward enough. Our December Outdoor Idaho explores “Idaho’s 12ers” and the Idahoans who cherish them, from close up and from afar.

From the Bruneau River down south to Chimney Rock up north, Outdoor Idaho goes “Off the Beaten Path” to find places of wonder and delight. We explore landscapes across the state of Idaho that are unknown to many and unexplored by most. Along the way, we’ll tell the story of each place through the voice of the folks who’ve dared to step off the beaten path.

Everybody loves a barn, and each one has a story to tell. Outdoor Idaho takes to the road to seek out some of our state’s most storied and majestic agricultural icons.

It’s the taste for meat and a thirst for adventure that drives hunters to dedicate early mornings and dusky evenings to the pursuit of an animal. From elk to pheasant, deer to chukar, hunting is in the genetic makeup of Idaho, both historically and culturally. In this show, we’ll hike along a snowy ridge, scramble across rocks and follow tracks to get inside the heads of Idaho’s women who hunt.

Outdoor Idaho explores “Idaho’s 12ers,” with the climbers who cherish them. There are nine peaks in the state above 12,000 feet.

From a desert river canyon to a towering tree oasis, Outdoor Idaho explores the lesser known landscapes of our uniquely shaped state, through the eyes of people who know the regions well.
