Hagerman Valley in Southern Idaho

June 4, 2007.

We moved the motorhome about 70-miles west to Hagerman at exit 147 on I-84. We are staying at High Adventure River Tours RV-Park/Store & Dutch Oven Cafe located on the southeast corner of exit 147. It is a nice RV-Park with shade and long pullthrough sites. PPA with tax ran $16 for FHU.

For those of you that are not familiar with PPA (Pass Port America) it is an organization you can join for less than $50 per-year. Campgrounds that belong to PPA offer 1/2 price discounts. That kind of savings can quickly add up. While participating PPA parks generally have some restrictions on dates the PPA offer is valid, or possibly days of the week the discount is valid, or perhaps the number of days that the PPA discount will be honored the discount is genuine. Many times PPA campgrounds are new campgrounds that need help in getting established. Other times PPA campgrounds may be on the outskirts of town instead of in the "prime" location thus they need to provide an incentive for campers to stay with them. Whatever the reason PPA campgrounds generally provide a much cheaper option. PPA is the only campground organization that I think is worth the cost. PPA does not have a gimic. What you see is what you get. Once you join they send you a directory listing all participating campgrounds. The PPA directory is the FIRST directory we check when trying to locate a place to spend the night. You can join PPA by calling 228-452-9972. If you decide to join PPA, it would be nice if you gave them my number "R-0156251" as the PPA member that told you about PPA. In return PPA will give me a years membership free. I will thank you in advance for that kindness. Thank you.

 

Covered hay in the Hagerman Valley of southern Idaho

The Hagerman Valley and indeed the whole Hagerman area seems to be the dairy capitol of Idaho. There is a dairy farm around every corner. Dairy farms mean lots of hay and this place is no exception.

For some reason dairys around Hagerman like to use blue and white stripe tarps over their hay.
