The Springhouse is a nice local restaurant in Hidden Springs in an historic building. Easy to access via Dry Creek or Cartwright roads. Good food, beer and wine. 43.72605, -116.26056
I've had a lot of learning on a dirt bike here at Hemingway and the surrounding Murphy area. Paved except to the gravel parking lot.
A very easy and scenic checkpoint to hit. Apparently there are some good hiking trails down here but I have too much fun riding my motorcycle to worry about hiking.
Not much left of the lookout. Plenty of sharp rocks on the way up to watch for.
Second try on his challenge site, too. I rode up to the Archery Range parking lot on Wednesday, April 29, because the gate was open. A BLM ranger told me I couldn't take a photo until Friday, May 1 because the road was officially closed until then.
Second attempt after being stopped by federal constabulary when we tried to ride Orchard Access in from the Potato Hotel. Take Pleasant Valley Rd south from the airport about 23 miles to Patch Rd, and turn north. You'll see a BLM sign telling you to stay a minimum of 1000 feet from the cave about 1.25 miles down the two-track.
Went out on a ride to an event in Greenleaf, then hit this on the way back. Very buggy with cooler temperatures, but a fun ride (as long as your visor is down). It was a beautiful sunset with rich, golden colors.

NOTE: The path up to the cross is accessible only by foot traffic, so plan extra time to hike to the top!
