About Hawley Mountains

The Hawley Mountains are a remote and rugged mountain range located in central Idaho. This isolated range rises abruptly from the surrounding high desert, with steep ridges, deep canyons, and jagged peaks dominating the landscape. The terrain is primarily composed of volcanic rock, with extensive talus fields and scree slopes. Due to the range's remote location and challenging access, the Hawley Mountains see relatively low visitation compared to other Idaho mountain ranges, making for a true wilderness experience.
