Spring is right around the corner, and Idaho Power parks and campgrounds are the perfect antidote for cabin fever. Most of the company’s recreational facilities are open year-round, but some amenities aren’t always available, depending on weather or maintenance. So it’s a good idea to check the website before you pack up for that day trip or weekend getaway.

Updated information on water turn-ons, facility closures, and restrictions, is available at idahopower.com/whatsopen.

If you’re ready to plan that overnight trip to one of Idaho Power’s campgrounds in Hells Canyon or at C.J. Strike, you can go to idahopower.com/camping to pick a park and reserve online. Many campgrounds fill up quickly, so it’s important to secure your spot before making the drive. Some locations, such as Swan Falls Dam, south of Kuna, Idaho, or the Moonshine Mine Recreation Area south of Richland, Oregon, have free camping on a first-come, first-served basis.

Wherever you go, and whatever you do, whether it’s fishing, boating, or just enjoying the great outdoors, Idaho Power encourages visitors to recreate safely. The company has kiosks with life jackets available to borrow at many boat launches. Campfires should be kept in the installed fire rings. You’ll find a full list of camping regulations on the Idaho Power website.
