About Sheep Hills

The Sheep Hills are a small mountain range located in central Idaho, part of the greater Rocky Mountain system. The range is characterized by rugged, heavily forested terrain with steep slopes and high ridges. Glacial activity has carved out several deep valleys and cirques, creating a dramatic alpine landscape dotted with lakes and tarns. The range's highest peaks reach over 9,000 feet, with the tallest summits offering panoramic views of the surrounding wilderness.
