Miners Peak Trail   The trail has not been maintained. I was able to hike it easily to the top 2 or 3 years ago. Not today...It was overgrown a lot and substantial deadfall. There are some burned spots also. That said, it's beautiful and a rigorous hike. Wear pants as the twigs will scratch you, and take insect repellant. Check your body for ticks also. The lookout is cool. Says Chris Miners Peak Trail is a long drive away from Boise City-Nampa but it's one of those     places where hiking is great.
