We’re in for a storm this weekend in the Treasure Valley. A little rain, some snow, and a lot of wind are all on the way. This can lead some of us to hole up on the couch and get a little lazy. But that’s really no excuse. You can head to Bogus Basin for some winter fun and get a deal on a season pass for next year. Or, if you’d rather stay out of the elements, there are some great indoor options, too. Here’s a list to help you plan your active weekend in Boise and beyond.
Friday, February 22

Bogus Basin Nordic ski hill is open this weekend, and there are several events. The tubing hill is open as well. Always be sure to check conditions before you go, just in case.
