Krall Mountain is a good destination for the month of May before summer temperatures hit. The peak is located NNW of Prairie, Idaho. The peak was burned over by a massive forest fire in the early 1990s and is mostly treeless. Since it has nearly 1,000 feet of prominence, it is a great place to view the surrounding country.
