Redfish Inlet Trailhead in Idaho’s Sawtooth region is a gateway to dramatic shoreline and mountain backdrops. Photograph the first viewpoints right from the trail start, then capture the changing textures of water, rocks, and pines as you head toward the inlet. Best light is sunrise (cool, clear air) and late afternoon (warm rim light). Parking is limited—arrive early on summer weekends.
