About the Temple

Standing on the banks of the Snake River, just above the cascading waters for which the city is named, the gleaming white Idaho Falls Idaho Temple serves as a centerpiece to the city. Just east of the temple is a gorgeous waterfall feature and public visitors' center featuring films, displays, multimedia presentations, and an awe-inspiring reproduction of Thorvaldsen's Christus statue. A stake center and parking lot occupy the property just south of the temple on the former site of an LDS Hospital.

Address: 1000 Memorial Dr, Idaho Falls, ID 83402

Lincoln Stake Trek 2026

Dates: July 23-25, 2026

Details about our stake's Trek 2026 will be posted here as they become available.

Location: Sellars Creek Ranch, 2574 Sellars Creek Road, Firth, ID 83236

What is Sellars Creek Ranch?

Sellars Creek Ranch is located about four miles south of Bone, Idaho. Since the early 1960s, the Ranch has been home to one of the church's welfare cattle operations, and later for Camp Cumorah girls and family camps, and most recently—the site for stake and ward youth conferences and family treks.

In mid-2015, the Sellars Creek Ranch Trek Operation was authorized as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' eighth handcart trek site. The Ranch is 1,680 acres in size, and has a 700-foot elevation change from the lower meadows on its east side—to the top of Perspective Peak on its west side.

Purpose of Trek

The purpose of the youth conference and trek program is to strengthen young men's and women's relationships with the Lord Jesus Christ. This mission enables youth to become agents unto themselves, and to experience spirit-prompted personal development.

Youth and their leaders may plan outdoor learning experiences here that complement what they are learning at home, in their ward classes and quorums, and in their Seminary classes.

Trek Activities

Some activities that have been incorporated into youth conference planning include:

• Activities associated with becoming members of the Lord's Youth Battalion
• The Youth Program for 11–18-year-olds
• Activities related to pioneer handcart treks
• Bible and Book of Mormon story reenactments
• "Come, Follow Me" program learning activities
• Other faith-promoting experiences that add to scriptural knowledge and personal development
