About Cold Springs Mountains

The Cold Springs Mountains are a small but rugged mountain range located in central Idaho. This remote and sparsely populated range features a mix of steep, rocky peaks, alpine meadows, and densely forested slopes. The terrain is characterized by deep canyons, dramatic rock formations, and numerous high-elevation lakes and streams. The highest point in the range is Mount Becker, which reaches an elevation of 10,456 feet. The Cold Springs Mountains offer a more isolated and wilderness-like experience compared to some of Idaho's larger, more popular mountain ranges.
