Those curious about the sliding, sweeping sport of curling can visit Stanley, Idaho from January 26-28 for the 11th annual Sawtooth Outdoor Bonspiel Tournament. In addition to learning the vocabulary of the sport (bonspiel means outdoor curling), the event offers spectacular views of the Sawtooth Mountains. The 16-team tournament includes a banquet, rink-side heated tent, and fire barrels to keep curlers and spectators warm. See sobidaho.com.
