Tyndall - Sulphur is a 6.2-mile out-and-back hike in Idaho's Boise National Forest, within the Cascade Ranger District. The trail rises from about 6,762 feet to about 7,637 feet, a total gain of 1,665 feet, and is rated moderate. The Forest Service manages the land, and the route is open year-round. The trail is natural-surfaced and allows both horses and bikes, so it works for riders and pack animals as well as hikers.

Warm Lake / Deadwood is under a mile away, and Sulphur - West Elk and Sulphur Creek are both within about 2 miles. For an overnight stay, Stolle Meadows Cabin is about 7 miles off.
