Idaho Sawtooth basecamp, any ideas..?

[robertjoy]

I am thinking of climbing in the Sawtooths for a week in August with a few friends. I'd like to hear about a good basecamp where we can easily get to several nice climbs in the 5.2-5.8 range. Let me know if you have been to a nice spot, maybe not too crowded.

Warbonnet Peak. The approach is a solid day including a lot of off trail travel. The basin below the peak consists of meadows, granite slabs and a series of beautiful lakes. Warbonnet Peak itself is reminisent of the Beckey Route on Liberty Bell. A little longer with an awesome summit block. I climbed it in late September of 2002 and was maybe the third or fourth party to sign the register that year. There are several other large and good looking spires on the same crest that must have some descent routes on them. Cehck it out.

The Feather Lakes are IMO the nicest in the basin by WB Peak.
