Nestled against the western side of the continental divide of the Rocky Mountains, Idaho is vast and diverse. Northern Idaho gleams with emerald green hillsides and sparkling lakes of all sizes. Rugged mountains, wilderness areas, and rolling farmland make up central Idaho. The Snake River Plain, with its wide open vistas, lush farmlands, and vibrant cities, forms the character of southern Idaho. Wherever you travel in Idaho youll find spectacular scenery and abundant recreational opportunities. Youll also find a place thats unhurried, unspoiled, and unassumingperfect for your own Adventure in Living. You may visit Idaho for its natural beauty and outdoor recreation, but youll find a great business climate here as well. In 2011 Idaho ranked #5 for Best Economic Outlook by the American Legislative Exchange Council and landed on three growth-related top-ten lists by the U. S. Chamber of Commerce.

UNEXPECTED PLACES
Theres one way to make sure that trip youll never forget really lasts forever. Film it and put it online for the world to see. And thats just what happened for the Lumpkin family, stars of The Great Idaho Getaway. Scan the Microsoft Tag below to watch one Seattle family experience Adventures in Living.

The Great Idaho Getaway: A totally immersive, real-life, online film adventure featuring everything that Idaho has to offer. Like most modern families with overworked parents, the Lumpkins were in need of some serious adventure therapy. Toby, Julie, Alden, and Georgia were promptly whisked away from their daily grind and off to Idaho for a 10-day vacation of a lifetime with our camera crew in tow. A 25-person film crew with six cameras captured all the recreation, scenery, and delightful Idaho hospitality they could fit into the ten-day trip.
OBVIOUSLY THIS WASNT A TYPICAL VACATION FOR US... AND ITS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST REWARDING THINGS WEVE DONE AS A FAMILY.
Toby Lumpkin Contrary to popular assumptions, the road to self-discovery is about 2,200 miles long with an action-packed itinerary. At least thats what Toby Lumpkin discovered when his 24/7 workaholic routine was interrupted with a wake-up callan invitation for the ultimate vacation, a 10-day adventure through Idaho. Toby and Julie Lumpkin are a quintessential modern urban couple, balancing successful careers with raising their two young children, Alden and Georgia. While Julie is a marketing consultant, Toby runs his real estate development and construction company from his home office.
the resident curmudgeon. At their wits end, Julie and the kids applied some tough love to get Toby out of his man-cave. He likes to work hard. He really does, says Julie Lumpkin, but, sometimes he needs someone else to make him get a move on and change things up a little. The Lumpkin family got more than they bargained for when they were flown from Seattle to Boise for the start of an actionpacked trip rafting, jet boating, golfing, horseback riding, and family bonding, Idaho style. On their first adventurerafting the Payette Riverit became clear

that it was not going to be an ordinary family vacation. After the rafting trip, Toby commented, As far as building a family and creating great family experiences, there are few better ways of doing that, says Toby, Because you have to work as a team, listen to each other, work with each other, and depend on each other. From there it was on to eastern Idaho for close encounters with Idaho wildlife at Yellowstone Bear World and then off to the Henrys Fork for some quality father-son fishing time. Next was stunning Sun Valley where Toby recharged his golf game with a pro, and Georgia realized her life-long dream of riding a horse on her own. At this point, Toby soon learned that many of a parents lifes lessons are revealed by their own children. Im not terribly comfortable on horses and to see a little girl on a giant horse and having her be so comfortable on it, in a way it gave me the courage to be comfortable too, said Toby. After a long drive, the family took a respite from filming with a quiet dinner overlooking Payette Lake in McCall. The next day, everyone reached the aptly-named Hells Canyon, the nations deepest river gorge, where the Lumpkins valiantly rode the
Class V rapids in a jet boat and saw their first massive sturgeon. After a top-of-the-world mountain bike ride on the breathtaking Route of the Hiawatha trail, the Lumpkins dove into classic family fun at Silverwood Theme Park, home to over 65 rides and attractions. After that it was time to kick back at the Coeur dAlene Resort to reflect on the memories of a road well-traveled. The ten-day adventure hardly exhausted the Lumpkinsfar from it. The journey had unexpected returns in that the family left Idaho with a whole new perspective on living. Where we live, or what kind of car I drive, my business successesor failures for that matterreally just pale down to almost nothing when you compare to our family, the relationship that Julie, I and the kids have, Toby ruminates. When you go on a trip like weve been on, those things become more apparent. Proof that a long road to adventure can bring us closer than we ever imagined.
TRAVELING WITH KIDS

Things Toby Lumpkin learned about himself, the troops, Julie and traveling with children:
I dont pick up snakes unless handed one by my daughter. Small-town mayors love my wife. The exhausted-end-of-the-dayand-still-havent-eaten moments reveal the childrens inner toughness and strength to everyone, but mostly to them. Families with well-mannered children get primo treatment at nice restaurants. Teach them good manners and take them to nice places. Everyone has something in common with children, and they are approachable. Children are a good conductor of introductions between adults. My daughter eats snailscooked snails, that is. Children care about experiences, not luxury. Money is better spent doing fun, exciting and challenging activities than on fancy lodgings. The Walk and Whine: On long hikes my daughter can have a multitude of complaints. Shes hungry, tired, has sore feet, a sore back, sore legs, wrong shoes, wrong socks, too hot, too cold, etc. But, she never stops walking, and we are able to get in some pretty good mileage. This is why we call it Walk and Whine. Of course, for Julie and I, it is walk, then wine.
LIFE IS EITHER A GREAT ADVENTURE OR NOTHING.

ITS AMAZING HOW MUCH IDAHO THE LUMPKINS PACKED INTO A FEW DAYS
Beginning with Boise for great food, Saturday market shopping, and rafting on the Payette River. Catching some wildlife close-ups at Yellowstone Bear World, feeling the mist at Mesa Falls, fly fishing on Henrys Fork, and just chilling at Harriman State Park. Getting in some horseback riding, golf, ice skating, shopping and a chair lift ride in Sun Valley. Aqua-cycle races, paddle-boarding at Redfish Lake in the stunning Sawtooth Mountains. Deluxe rest and reinvigoration on Payette Lake in McCall. Jet-boating up the Class V rapids in Hells Canyon. Mountain biking high along the Continental Divide on the Route of the Hiawatha trail near Wallace. Jet-skiing and spa-ing at Coeur dAlene and theme park revelry at Silverwood.
TRAVELING WITH CHILDREN BROADENS THE SPECTRUM OF POSSIBLE EXPERIENCES RATHER THAN LIMITS THEM.
Toby & Julie Lumpkin
Quick Tip:
One way to make a trip a success for everyone is to give your kids more responsibility. Have them pack their own bags, carry their luggage, and allow them to participate into the logistics of checking in a hotel, paying a park fee, or studying up on the history of a place.

Timber Country
From Moscow, you can meander through rolling fields and past beautiful mountain meadows, up to timber country to see magnificent standing giants of Cedar, Tamarack, and Fir trees. Consider Hwy 3, 6, and 8 through the towns of Princeton, Harvard, Santa and Troy. Take a short hike to Elk Creek Falls near Elk River, a classic tributary falls set in a peaceful, shaded gorge. The mountains offer great camping in the summer, hunting in the fall, and perfect terrain for winter snowmobiling.
Golden wheat and barley fields, bright yellow canola flowers, and emeraldgreen pea fields are all set against an azure sky. Surrounded by this pastoral landscape, Moscow is home to the University of Idaho, one of the Wests most picturesque campuses. Once here, stop by the golf course, the climbing wall, the arboretum, or the gothic style administration building. The charming city of Moscow is an eclectic mix of small-town friendliness and college-town energy. The downtown area, full of shops and restaurants, is adjacent to tree-lined neighborhoods where children play and families gather. Enjoy a visit to the Camas Prairie Winery, a local farmers market, or hit the green at one of the surrounding golf courses. Celebrate a noble breed by visiting the Appaloosa Museum and Heritage Center, which explores the horses history with the Nez Perce Tribe. Once the snow falls, the region becomes popular for snowmobiling. Hit the trails to scratch your itch for winter-time fun.

Experiencing the rapids from a jet boat will make it even more memorable. Guided excursions are launched from Lewiston, White Bird and Hells Canyon Dam. If powder is what you desire, a short distance out of town finds premier areas for winter trekking; from snowshoeing to skiing, Snowhaven and Cottonwood Butte have you covered.

Youll emerge onto the bucolic farm lands of the Camas Prairie, named for the camas flowers native to the area. For something a little different, consider staying in a yurt in the forests of Winchester State Park near the parks 104-acre lake. Then visit the nearby Wolf Education and Research Center where youll have the rare chance to glimpse wolves in their natural habitat. In Cottonwood, turn off the highway to visit Dog Bark ParkIdahos most unusual bed and breakfast inn and see Sweet Willy Colton, the worlds largest beagle.

Lewis & Clark

No visit to north central Idaho is complete without exploring Hwy 12, the Northwest Passage Scenic Byway, which meanders along the Lochsa and Clearwater Rivers. Begin your own trip at Lewiston on the Washington border or Lolo Pass on the Montana state line. High above the rivers on mountain ridges is the most pristine section of the Lewis & Clark Trail, much the same as when the expedition passed through this area over two hundred years ago. After an exhausting monthlong trek across the Bitteroot Mountains in Montana and back into Idaho, the expedition arrived at the Weippe Prairie in September of 1805 weary and starving. The Nez Perce Tribe accepted the strangers and ensured their survival. They were considered the most hospitable tribe the party encountered. To learn more about the Nez Perce history and culture, stop at any one of the 38 sites on the Nez Perce National Historical Park, the only national park that celebrates a people instead of a place. The headquarters at Spalding has an impressive museum and visual presentation, and it is a good place to get an overview of the sites that you may want to visit. At the Lewis & Clark Discovery Center (Hells Gate State Park in Lewiston), youll learn more about this historic exploration of the mountainous American West. Tucked back in the park is the Jack OConnor Center, a tribute to the dean of outdoor writing. Aficionados may want to join the Lewis & Clark Trail Heritage Foundation Annual Meeting, scheduled annually at the Nez Perce Tribes Event Center at the Clearwater Casino Campus. lewisandclarkidaho.org
Lower Salmon River
Middle Fork of the Salmon
White bird and Riggins

Between White Bird and Riggins, youll follow the mighty Salmon River flowing through the valleys and canyons it carved through the mountains. This area is Idahos whitewater capital, supplying a prime venue for rafting, kayaking, and jet boating. From White Bird, you can descend into Hells Canyon at Pittsburg Landing, a picnic area and boat launch on the Snake River. Riggins has numerous river outfitters and is an adventurous place to stay, providing a casual smalltown atmosphere. It is the closest town to Heavens Gate, a view point into Hells CanyonNorth Americas deepest river gorgein the Seven Devils Mountains. Inquire locally before driving up since the elevation is over 8,407 feet, and the road can be challenging. If youre in Riggins in the spring of 2012, plan to see the Salmon River Jet Boat races, the first leg of the U.S. Championship Jet Boat series, where world-class competitors conquer the rugged waters at unbelievable speeds. Fishing enthusiasts will love the areas steelhead runs in both spring and fall. Idaho is the only inland western state with ocean-run salmon and steelhead.

n southwestern Idaho, within a few hours drive, you can roam through a variety of diverse climates and dramatically different landscapes, from rural farmland to a bustling city; from vast expanses of forestlands to endless vistas of high country desert. In a single day, you can hike to an alpine lake and see incredible wildlife, dine at a local downtown hot spot, then head to a sporting or cultural event; you can hit the slopes at a ski area then end the day at a local theatre of eatery. You can watch eagles take flight, and then listen to smooth jazz or rock music. You can be in the middle of it all one minute and get away from it the next. Youll be impressed with the lush, green mountain valley rimmed by snow-capped peaks. Wherever you decide to enter southwestern Idaho, youll probably notice that this part of Idaho is where country chic meets modern sophistication. Make sure your itinerary includes some extra time for tasting Idahos bounty. Local foods and Idaho wines are quickly gaining the acclaim that southwest Idahos mountains, rivers and outdoor recreation opportunities have long enjoyed. The designation of the Snake River Valley American Viticulture Area is bringing more attention to the wines produced in the area, and restaurants continue to create delectable menus using Idaho-grown and locally sourced products.

Both have family-friendly, gracious neighborhoods and some of the best golf courses in Idaho. If youre traveling with children, dont pass up Roaring Springs Water Park and Wahooz Family Fun Zone in Meridian. If its thrills you seek, spend a day at the Firebird Raceway or the Western Idaho State Fair.

The Snake River Birds of Prey Festival in Kuna offers a chance to learn about these magnificent creatures and go on a field trip to the conservation area. For a step back in time, take the family to the Warhawk Air Museum in Nampa which showcases vintage World War II aircraft used in the films Pearl Harbor and Valkyrie.

outh central Idaho was named the Magic Valley for a very good reason: in this part of Idaho, youll find a new appreciation for the wonders of nature. Arriving from the west on I-84, youll observe how some of Americas most fruitful farmlands, nourished by the water of the Snake River, are carved from the rock and sagebrush of the high desert plateau. More wonders await if you take time to venture off the interstate; youll discover a world much different than what you might expect. Explore an area in which ancient geological mysteries come to life. Youll be rewarded with top-notch fishing and hunting. Youll discover diverse and unique recreation pursuits: caving, BASE jumping, rock climbing, skiing, and snow shoeing. Youll be astonished at the intense thundering waterfalls and massive canyons; surprised at how cold an ice cave is on a hot summer day, and enchanted with the easy, relaxed countryside of beautiful Hagerman Valley.

Hagerman Valley
When you visit this region of Idaho, take some time to see picturesque Hagerman Valley. Warm summers and mild winters make it pleasant yearround. Just driving through the pastoral countryside will ease your soul, but if you have a little more time, theres a wealth of wonders to discover. Once off the interstate, pause at the viewpoint to take in the captivating vista of the valley that unfolds below. Follow Hwy 30 on the Thousand Springs Scenic Byway to continue your journey of enchantment. Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument holds the richest fossil deposits of the Pliocene Epoch, about 3.5 million years ago. Stop at the visitor center in Hagerman, open from June to September, to see a replica of the Hagerman Horse. While there, ask about the many trails for hiking, biking or horseback riding. Unique to this valley are natural springs that gush from the canyon walls and bubble up from the valley floor, thought to be the Big Lost River re-emerging from beneath the desert. Not only are
they picturesque, they also provide a naturally flowing cold water environment for nurturing trout. In fact, most trout used in American kitchens are reared in this valley. Visit the Hagerman National Fish Hatchery, located in the Thousand Springs area of the Snake River, where summer hosts are eager to give you a tour. While youre near Thousand Springs, stop at any of the four units of Thousand Springs State Park: Malad Gorge, Billingsley Creek, Niagara Springs, and the newest, Earl M. Hardy Box Canyon Springs Preserve, a 350-acre state park with a 20-foot waterfall and crystalclear springs. All are fascinating examples of some of the unique geological features in south central Idaho. The scenic byway leaves the valley floor and emerges on the southern portion of the Magic Valley at Buhl, a delightful town with a thriving arts community. South of Buhl in Salmon Falls Creek Canyon stands the Balanced Rock, over 48-feet tall and weighing over 40 tons, balanced precariously on a pedestal 17 x 36 inches! Nearby, Balanced Rock Park is a lovely place for a picnic.

Perrine Bridge
Continuing on I-84, you can catch a quick glimpse of the areas incredible geology by stopping at Malad Gorge, which squeezes the Malad River through Devils Washbowl into a canyon only 250 feet deep and two miles long. A bridge that arcs over the canyon provides a great view of the waterfalls, or you can take a short hike to discover nearby fingers of the river.
Twin Falls
The city of Twin Falls is the heart of the Magic Valley and makes a good base from which to explore south central Idaho. With many hotels, bed and breakfast inns, excellent restaurants, and numerous shopping opportunities, its a great place to spend an afternoon or two. The city lies on the south rim of the Snake River Canyon, a spot made famous by Evel Knievels 1974 attempt to jump the canyon. The canyon drops 500 feet, and the width varies between 1,500 feet and a full mile. The best views are from a visitors center on the south side of the Perrine Bridge. Speaking of base, you can walk onto the bridge where BASE-jumping is a popular activity, or have dinner and a drink while soaking in the view from the elegant Canyon Crest Dining and Events Center, also on the south rim of the gorge. While dining, visitors are able to gaze down to the canyon floor to see two fabulous golf courses and Centennial Park, which is a great place to photograph the bridge. But dont just peer at the Snake River from the canyon rim; outfitters are available to provide raftHagerman
ing, canoeing or boating adventures on the river. Cruise beneath Perrine Bridge and on to Pillar Falls or raft the exciting Murtaugh section of the Snake River. Trips range from two hours to two days of Snake River fun. Shoshone Falls, where water plummets an astounding 212 feet, is actually higher than the famous Niagara Falls. Water flow varies from a small trickle to an impressive surge during the spring runoff. Inquire at the Twin Falls Visitors Center about current water flow and directions to the falls. There are several museums in the area. Herrett Center, on the campus of the College of Southern Idaho, houses a collection of galleries that showcase pre-Colombian artifacts as well as art and science exhibits. The Faulkner Planetarium, inside the Herrett Center, has regularly scheduled performances throughout the year. The Twin Falls County Historical Museum, located in the Old Union School Building at Curry Crossing, and the Jerome County Historical Museum in Jerome, give you the opportunity to step back in time to the early days of the Magic Valley. If youre driving north of Shoshone on Hwy 93 between the spring and fall seasons, be sure to stop at the Shoshone Ice Caves, a complex of caves, lava tubes and caverns with a year-round ice floor. Bring a sweater; even in the summer, the 45-minute tour can be chilly.

Historical Trails
Between 1843 and 1869 when the railroad was completed, over a half-million people literally walked through Idaho and across the west on the Oregon Trail, the greatest migration in American history. Several alternative trails cross southern Idaho as well. Along the California Trail at the City of Rocks, intrepid pioneers inscribed their names in axle grease on the great spires. South central Idaho was the place to cross the Snake River, at either Thousand Springs or Three Island Crossing. Wagon ruts can still be seen across southern Idaho. oregontrailcenter.org
Lake Walcott State Park
City of Rocks
recent volcanic rift in the U.S., extending more than 65 miles across the Snake River Plain. At 635 square miles, its the earths largest and deepest rift and has emitted lava flows over the last 115,000 years that resulted in spatter caves, ice tubes, ice caves, and cinder cones. South of Burley is another astonishing geological feature: City of Rocks National Reserve. Huge granite columns, up to 2.5 billion years old and 60 stories high, loom over a 500-acre windswept valley. City of Rocks offers some of the finest granite-crag rock climbing anywhere, with about 700-charted routes. Its an important California Trail landmark as well; pioneers inscriptions on rocks can still been seen here. On your way to City of Rocks, youll pass Oakley, a town founded by Mormon emigrants in 1878. Today, the entire town is listed on the National Register of Historic Places due to the outstanding collection of old stone and brick buildings. Whenever you visit Burley and Rupert, you cant help but notice Cache Peak, the highest mountain in Idaho south of the Snake River (10,339 ft). One of the oldest and best of Idahos ski resorts is here just outside of Albion, Pomerelle Mountain Resort. This small, familyowned resort is a great place for winter fun, especially for young children just learning to ski or snowboard. In summer, Pomerelle offers scenic chairlift rides for mountain biking or hiking, as well as volleyball, and horseshoe pits. If snowmobiling is your passion, the area provides a variety of terrain and consistent snow quality.
Burley / Rupert
East of Twin Falls on I-84 is Burley, set along the Snake River, with several riverside parks ideal for swimming, fishing or water skiing. Each June, the Idaho Regatta takes placea three-day speedboat spectacular featuring the nations finest flat-bottom boats that reach top speeds of over 140 mph. Northeast of Burley is Rupert, a charming small city with a town square adorned by the beautifully restored Wilson Theater. Dine across the street at the historical Drift Inn. A short drive northeast of the town is Lake Walcott and the 25-milelong Minidoka National Wildlife Refuge. The gentle waters here favor the growth of aquatic plants that provide food for waterfowl and fish. Lake Walcott State Park on the northwest end of the lake is perfect for camping and fishing, with a boat ramp and developed facilities. If the geology of the area hasnt inspired you yet, ask the staff at the Mini-Cassia Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center about the Great Rift, one of only two such geologic features on earth. A primary fissure system responsible for much of the fascinating geology of south central Idaho, the Great Rift is the most

ll the routes into southeastern Idaho will lead you through expansive landscapes that will remind you of the Old West. In this region lies Idahos oldest town, Franklin. Youll find working guest ranches, an Indian reservation, hot springs, and even the getaway route of Butch Cassidy. Here, The West really does live on. You can follow the history and tradition of the Shoshone and Bannock Tribes as they migrated seasonally to hunt buffalo, deer, and antelope. Throughout this area of Idaho, you can experience an emigrant trail and frontier life in several interpretive museums and displays. Touch the rocks where pioneers and Indians once clashed. Watch thrilling rodeo action, immerse yourself in one of the Wests best hot spring complexes, or experience the vivid art and culture scene at Idaho State University in Pocatello. Throughout the region, youll be close to great hunting, fishing, and camping. When the snow flies, the hills are softly blanketed in powder, perfect for snowmobiling or downhill skiing at Pebble Creek, just a stones throw from Pocatello. With a visit to southeastern Idaho, youll gain a sense of adventure in a land that harkens back to its western heritage.

American Falls
When the hills along I-86 begin to emit the perfume of aromatic juniper trees, youll be nearing American Falls and Massacre Rocks State Park, a place whose history is much deeper than the name suggests. The great Bonneville Flood, which drained the lake that once covered much of Utah, surged through Red Rock Pass and into the Snake River over 16,000 years ago. In those few months, the flow was four times that of the Amazon River, making this cataclysmic event the second largest flood in the geologic history of the world. Eons later, a quarrel between emigrants and local Indians happened near here, leading to the misnomer Massacre Rocks. Today, its the site of a popular state park where you can explore the Oregon Trail, camp, hike or view wildlife. Over 200 species of birds, including Canada geese, blue heron, pelicans and bald eagles, have been spotted here. The pleasant town of American Falls is peacefully located on the southern banks of American Falls Reservoir, the states largest. With three boat ramps north of the dam, the recreational opportunities are abundant.
Fort Hall
At the crossroads of the Oregon Trail lies the 544,000-acre Fort Hall Indian Reservation, home to the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes. If youre in southeastern Idaho during the second week of August, plan to attend the annual Shoshone-Bannock Indian Festival, one of the most popular Indian gatherings in North America. See colorful dancers, Indian pony races, and an all-Indian rodeo and take in more than 50 art, craft, and food venues.

Pocatello
The heart of southeastern Idaho is Pocatello, a city born of the railroad. The ease of the community and the convenience of its visitor services make it an ideal base from which to explore the region. The citys many restaurants, motels, shopping malls, historic neighborhoods, and Idaho State University make it an appealing stop for visitors. The most interesting district is Old Town, 12 square-blocks of the downtown historic district, where you can relive Pocatellos railroad heritage while enjoying great restaurants and casual shopping.

Pocatello
The area around Idaho State University is filled with tree-lined streets and pleasant neighborhoods. The extensive campus includes the L.E. and Thelma E. Stephens Performing Arts Center. The university is also home to the Idaho Museum of Natural History, which houses collections in anthropology, vertebrate paleontology, and earth and life sciences. Not far from the university are Ross Park and the Fort Hall Replica, a reconstruction of the original Hudsons Bay Company fort that became an important respite on the Oregon Trail. Upon entering through massive wooden doors, youll see exhibits and displays in six different halls and rooms inside the fort. All winter, theres great skiing at nearby Pebble Creek Ski Area, with its 54 runs and 2,200-foot vertical drop. In late August, you can enjoy the bluegrass music
of ten regional bands at the Bannock County Bluegrass Festival. Camping is available at the festival in the Bannock County Fairgrounds.
Hot Springs
Developed hot springs are found throughout the region. The largest, Lava Hot Springs, a popular resort town southeast of Pocatello, was a sacred gathering place for the Bannock and Shoshone Indians. Today, it remains a popular spot for people around the world seeking its soothing waters yearround. The hot spring water is naturally filtered as it moves through four separate pools ranging in temperature from 104 to 110 degrees. During the summer, cool off in the Olympic-sized pool. In the winter, life heats up for the annual Fire and Ice Winter Fest. This event features wine tasting, the Portneuf River Polar Bear Float, karaoke contests, a chili cook off, the swimming pool rock climb, a casino night, and the exciting, Running of the Bulls. Downata Hot Springs, near Downey, offers pools, a water slide, a driving range, mini-golf, and volleyball and basketball courts. Riverdale Resort and Maple Grove Hot Springs are both located near Preston, while Bear Lake Hot Springs is located near the shores of Bear Lake. Soda Springs began as an oasis along the Oregon Trail. The only captive geyser in the world today, Soda Springs Geyser can be seen on the hour, year round, shooting gallons of sparkling water over 100 feet into the air. The Historic Enders Hotel is a great place to view the spectacle.

Historic Trails
The movement of travelers across the Oregon Trail became the greatest migration in American history. Between 1843 and 1869, over a half million emigrants undertook the arduous journey to the West. They entered Idaho near Montpelier and headed towards Fort Hall for a rest. Trails multiplied here as new routes west were etched into the landscape. Register Rock, with emigrant inscriptions, is now part of Massacre Rocks State Park, and the National Oregon/ California Trail Interpretive Center is located at Montpelier. oregontrailcenter.org
Be sure to stop in Paris. While you wont see the Eiffel Tower, youll see the historic and beautifully restored Paris Tabernacle, open for tours in the summer. Built in 1889 in the Romanesque style architecture, its recognized as one of the true pioneer landmarks of the West and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. If you like to discover natural wonders off the beaten path, Minnetonka Cave just might interest you. This is the largest developed limestone cave in Idaho. Tours through a half-mile of stalactites and stalagmites are available from June to September (not recommended for those with health conditions or access issues). For a tamer style of tour, check out the National Oregon/California Trail Interpretive Center in Montpelier. Built on the site of the historic Clover Creek Encampment, it guides you experimentally on the 2,000 mile, five-month journey along the Oregon Trail in a covered wagon. Bear Lake has more to offer than just scenic views and recreation. During the summer the small town heats up for the Bear Lake Fun Fly Kite Festival, Outdoor Heritage Days, and Bear Lake Raspberry Days. Experience this lakeside resort areas small town charm and culture.
Bear Lake
Bear Lake
A hidden gem of a destination, Bear Lake shares its beauty with Utah. The striking turquoise blue color is the result of tiny soluble carbonates in the water. At midday, the water is turquoise, while at sunrise and sunset, it turns into a dazzling array of reds, yellows, and pinks. At 120 square miles, the lake is a haven for swimming, waterskiing, boating, and fishing. The wide expanse of the lake and its altitude make it ideal for sailing as well. On the north shore of the lake is Bear Lake National Wildlife Refugehome to Sandhill cranes, ducks, and numerous species of songbirds. Check with the headquarters in nearby Montpelier for activities allowed at the refuge. Two units of Bear Lake State Park are situated on the north and east ends of the lake for visitors to enjoy. With over five miles of sandy beaches, there is access to all water activities, and the gradual slope of the lake bottom makes for enormous swimming areas. Naturally, there are trout for the fisherman. But in the winter, you can fish for the Bonneville Cisco, a sardine-like whitefish found nowhere else on earth.
Blackfoot
Follow the Pioneer Historic Byway to the Blackfoot Reservoir and Blackfoot River to fish for Rainbow and Cutthroat trout. The community of Blackfoot is a city with an abundance of parks and a challenging 18-hole golf course that is considered one the states best. Be sure to stop at the Idaho Potato Museum on NW Main Street, open all year. The museum includes dozens of fun and educational exhibits featuring Idahos most famous product. The museum houses old farming equipment, 1,600-year-old Peruvian vessels, and a visual presentation about the potato industry in Idaho.

Experience Swan Valley online at visitidaho.org/360tours
hen you first venture into eastern Idaho, youll notice the broad valley that stretches between the famous Teton Mountains on the east and the majestic Lemhi Range on the west. This open space surrounds the winding Snake River and is the heart of production of Idahos claimto-famethe Idaho potato. But its the nearby mountains that give this part of the state its scenic character. Eastern Idaho is a land where the snowcapped peaks of the Grand Tetons feed thundering waterfalls, glistening lakes, and free-flowing rivers. Its a place where elk and moose graze lazily in the grasslands, a spot where you can watch wild swans fly and eagles soar. Its an accessible area that, to this day, remains uncompromised. Eastern Idaho has always attracted adventurers. As a neighbor to the Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks, it shares much of the same spectacular beauty and awesome adventure but without the crowds.

Idaho Falls
Idaho Falls, once known as Eagle Rock, is the hub and the largest city in eastern Idaho, so its a good place to consider traveling to as you explore the beauty around you. The Snake River runs through Idaho Falls and is paralleled with a popular greenbelt. On the west side of the Snake River youll see one of the citys landmark buildings the impressive LDS temple. On the opposite bank youll find Idaho Falls hotel row. In between are the manmade falls on the Snake River, which gave the city its name. Downtown Idaho Falls is encircled by beautifully landscaped neighborhoods, over 1,200 acres of parks, four golf courses, and an indoor aquatic center. Be sure to see the inspiring Idaho Vietnam Memorial along the river, off Fremont Street. Idaho Falls is emerging as a cultural hub for the region with the outstanding 15,000 square foot Museum of Idaho, which presents Idaho Falls history and provides traveling exhibits.

Guided tours are available and a gift shop offers bear and wildlife items. This is a must for anyone traveling with children. About half an hour north of Idaho Falls sits the pleasant community of Rexburg, rebuilt after a devastating flood in 1976. The newly constructed Teton Dam had burst, pouring billions of gallons of water through the town. The Teton Flood Museum details the tragedy and the citizens reaction to it, and also displays pioneer relics and an extensive opal and agate collection. To see the remains of the dam, follow Hwy 33 to Newdale and watch for road signs. Rexburg is also home to the International Dance and Music Festival, held each summer on the campus of BYU Idaho. Hundreds of dancers from ten countries come to Idaho to perform, share their cultural heritage, and experience the best of America. Free events include opening and closing ceremonies, street dances, a parade and fireworks, while ticketed events include the indoor dance performances. For fun in the sun and sandcheck out St. Anthony Sand Dunes, just west of St. Anthony. These dunes consist of 11,000 acres of shimmering, shifting, white quartz sand. The area is managed by the Bureau of Land Management, which allows ATV use. If off-roading is your favorite diversion, this attraction cant be missed.

Island Park
This rustic resort area is actually the worlds largest caldera, 23 miles in diameter, created from a volcano that collapsed in prehistoric times. Now carpeted in wildflowers and dense pine forests, its popular for hiking and fishing in the summer and Nordic skiing and snowmobiling in the winter. The Henrys Fork of the Snake River is a stretch of clear mountain water acclaimed by fly-fishing enthusiasts as the best trout-fishing stream in the U.S. Curtailed here to form the 7,000-acre Island Park Reservoir, its popular with both anglers and boaters. One source of the Henrys Fork is Big Springs, where 120 million gallons of water bubble into the river each day. The Big Springs Nature Trail, six miles north of the Island Park Ranger Station, is a half-mile, handicap-accessible trail that provides great viewing of osprey, bald eagles, and waterfowl, and an occasional moose, deer, or muskrat. The Henrys Fork then winds through the meadows of Harriman State Park. Also known as the Railroad Ranch, this property was deeded to the people by Averell Harriman of the Union Pacific Railroad. Guided tours of the ranch are available in the summer. Yurts and the former ranch managers house are available to rent. You can hike, fish, cycle, ride the parks trails on horseback, or simply observe the wildlife that abounds in the park. A most rewarding side trip in route to Island Park is the Mesa Falls Scenic Byway. At Ashton, turn onto Hwy 47 and slowly descend into an unexpected canyon. Lower Mesa Falls is 65 high and can be viewed from an observation point high above the falls. Stunning Upper Mesa Falls plunges 114 feet and has a network of viewing platforms as well as a visitor center. Located just 15 miles west of Yellowstone National Park, Henrys Lake is the kind of place fisherman dream about. Named after explorer Major Andrew Henry, the state park is open summer and fall for anglers to fish for Cutthroat,
Elk
Henrys Fork
Brook, and Rainbow-Cutthroat hybrid trout. The park features 45 campsites, camping cabins, and a modern fish cleaning station near the boat ramp.
Teton Valley
Just west of Jackson Hole, the communities of Driggs, Tetonia, and Victor comprise the less crowded side of the Teton Mountains. The valley is a rural agricultural area perched at 6,200 feet in elevation, with outstanding outdoor recreation in both summer and winter. Hospitable resorts, hotels, guest ranches, and bed and breakfast inns can be found throughout the area. You can experience the beauty and recreational activities of the Tetons on your own or with an outfitter wholl give you personal insight into this glorious country. If you visit in the summer, plan to fish on the Teton River, hike in the mountains, play golf at Teton Springs, or go on a trail ride. In the winter, Teton Valley is transformed into a magical white paradise. Abundant snow makes for fantastic alpine and Nordic skiing and snowmobiling. Some of the best powder on the planet can be found at Grand Targhee Resort, just outside of Driggs in Alta, Wyoming. Grand Targhee offers astounding views of the Tetons and a variety of winter and summer activities. This historical rendezvous area, once called Pierres Hole by fur trappers, has two museums to explore: The Teton Valley Museum on Hwy 33 and the Warbirds Museum at the Driggs airport. Warbirds Cafe at the airport is a great place to grab some lunch. If you use eastern Idaho as a base, you can explore both Yellowstone and Teton National Parks, plus enjoy the quiet and solitude of one of Americas most scenic mountain ranges.

nspire your inner adventurer with a trip into the very heart of Idaho. The awe-inspiring peaks of the Boulder, White Cloud, Lost River, Lemhi, and Sawtooth ranges make this region Idahos most mountainous. Mount Borah, Idahos highest peak at 12,662 feet, looms above the sweeping plains near Mackay. From a sophisticated ski resort to guest ranches, bed and breakfast inns, and campgrounds, this area of Idaho will please anyones taste. Sun ValleyAmericas first ski resortattracts visitors from all over the world in winter and summer. The magnificent Sawtooth Mountains tower over the town of Stanley, with thousands of alpine lakes nestled between the peaks. Its here that the mighty Salmon River, the River of No Return, is born of creeks flowing from high mountain summits. Elk, deer, and moose graze in the meadows while antelope sprint across the open plains. Lewis and Clark entered this part of Idaho crossing over Lemhi Pass near Salmon during their journey to find a northwest passage to the Pacific. The expeditions interpreter, Sacajawea, was a Lemhi-Shoshone woman born near present-day Salmon. You can explore this mountainous area of Idaho on your own or hire a local guide for specific adventures. The region is perfect for outdoor activities such as rafting, horseback riding, climbing, hiking, and canoeing.

This is the high mountain valley in which the Salmon River begins as a small stream. From here, you can venture into the Sawtooth National Recreation Area or even higher into the Sawtooth Wilderness to hike and view wildlife. Trails lead to meadows, across streams, through forests, and up to high alpine lakes. The visitor center north of Ketchum can provide you with maps and information for an enjoyable and safe trip. The town of Stanley is situated at the junction of three of Idahos best scenic byways: Ponderosa Pine Scenic Byway on Hwy 21, Salmon River Scenic Byway on Hwy 93 and 75, and the Sawtooth Scenic Byway on Hwy 75. A rustic
and welcoming western town, Stanley serves as a gateway to the lakes, peaks, and trails of the Sawtooths. With plenty of motels, cabins, and guest ranches, its a great launching point for float trips and other ventures into the mountains. The premier central Idaho adventure is a guided trip down the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. The 96-mile river flows freely through the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, the largest federally protected wilderness area in the lower 48 states. It offers a nonmotorized river floating experience with crystal-clear water, several natural hot springs, and catch-and-release fishing. Idahos most famous Wild and Scenic river is ranked as one of the top ten whitewater rivers in the world. Known for its challenging Class III and IV rapids, the Middle Fork is pristine and unspoileda rare treat for any adventurer. Outfitters are available to guide, but book your spot well in advance, as launches are limited.

Sun Valley
No trip to Idaho would be complete without a visit to Idahos renowned Sun Valley. On the edge of the untamed wilderness, the resort area of Sun ValleyKetchum glistens with cosmopolitan sophistication. Founded in 1936 near the mining town of Ketchum by railroad tycoon Averell Harriman, Sun Valley was Americas first destination ski resort. It has the old-world charm and ambiance of a cozy European alpine village, with lodging and shopping, an award-winning golf course, championship tennis club, and an outdoor ice skating rink. During summer and fall, dont miss the world-class skaters perform in Stars on Ice. Enjoy quality entertainment outdoors at the Sun Valley Pavilion. The new Sun Valley Clubhouse hosts golfers in summer and Nordic skiers in the winter. Nearby, casual Ketchum enriches a Sun Valley vacation with many fine restaurants, galleries, shops, and entertainment. Combine the historic charm of Ketchum with activities in the nearby countrysidemountain biking, fishing, hiking, or horseback ridingand youll have an unforgettable vacation.
Fairfield
Solider Mountain Ski Areaa small, relaxed ski-property with 36 runs and a vertical drop of 1,400 feetsits just outside of this small farming community. Within a few minutes of Fairfield are the Mormon and Magic Reservoirs, where huge rainbow and brown trout are caught regularly. Other prime trout fishing spots in this area include Silver Creek (Ernest Hemingways favorite) near Bellevue and the Little Wood River, a unique desert stream northeast of Richfield.
Craters of the Moon

In the high desert near Arco is one of the most unusual landscapes on earth: Craters of the Moon National Monument. This exceptional site is the largest basaltic, dominantly Holocene (last 10,000 years) lava field in the mainland of the United States. The 750,000-acre monument encompasses a stunning array of volcanic features: aa, pahoehoe and blocky lava; cinder cones, spatter cones, and lava tubes (caves). Its an excellent place for bird watching, photography, backpacking, and caving. An RV park is conveniently located on the property with motels in nearby Arco. Early pioneers avoided this eerie domain, yet decades later, nearly 225,000 visitors explore this fascinating landscape annually. A seven-mile loop road leads you through the lava field, and there are short trails to caves and craters.

Lewis & Clark

The Lewis and Clark expedition crossed the continental divide near Lemhi Pass on August 12, 1805, accompanied by its interpreter, Sacajawea, a young Lemhi-Shoshone woman who was born near presentday Salmon, Idaho. It was in central Idaho that the hopes of finding a river passage to the Pacific were dashed. Begin your own Voyage of Discovery in this region by visiting the Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural, and Educational Center; rafting the Salmon River; and driving to Lemhi Pass on the Lewis and Clark Backcountry Byway. lewisandclarkidaho.org
new technology in the field of nuclear energy. On the eastern side of Arco is the Idaho National Laboratory, a vast complex of scientific experiment stations in the wind-swept, high plains desert. Arco is an excellent lunch stop before or after visiting Craters of the Moon National Monument, just 18 miles west.
Mount Borah
Salmon & the Lemhi Valley

North of Challis, Hwy 93 enters the serene and picturesque Lemhi Valley. Nestled in the shadows between the Bitterroot Mountains and the Lemhi Range, this is the valley where mountain men of the 1800s, Jim Bridger and Kit Carson, would spend the winter. Today, the town of Salmon is called the Whitewater Capital of the World. From Salmon, professional outfitters are available to take you on the river dubbed The River of No Return or the Main Salmon. The Salmon River remains one of the few free-flowing waterways in America. Wildlife thrives in the rugged mountains and grassy meadows. The best way to experience the Salmon is with one of Idahos many licensed outfitters, who offer float trips ranging from one to eight days on calm or wild water. The town of Salmon is the largest in the area and a great place to stop, refuel, and refresh. Dont pass up a visit to the Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural, and Educational Center. The museum celebrates the contributions of this Lemhi-Shoshone woman who served as an interpreter for the Lewis and Clark expedition. Enjoy the visitor center, outdoor amphitheater, Sacajawea monument, and a one-mile interpretive trail. Immerse yourself further in the explorers experiences by driving up to Lemhi Pass on the Lewis and Clark Backcountry Byway. Many historians consider Lemhi Pass the most important site along the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail. It was here that the dream of an easy route to the Pacific died as the explorers gazed upon mountains ahead. The byway is a 38-mile, single-lane gravel road with steep grades, but its certainly worth the journey.
Middle Fork Salmon River
Mackay and Arco

As you drive along Hwy 93 beside the Lost River Range, youll see Idahos highest peak to the east. Mt. Borah is the most noticeable mountaintop in the range, surpassing the neighboring peaks at 12,662 feet. Nearby is the town of Mackay, nicknamed Top of Idaho because of its proximity to the peak. The majestic mountains surrounding Mackay are ideal for hiking and backcountry drives. Explore the areas heritage on a self-guided tour of mining locations on Mackays Mine Hill. Located along the Big Lost River in eastern Idaho, Arco was the first city in the world to be lit with electricity generated by nuclear power. A national reactor testing station was established nearby in 1949. Experimental Breeder Reactor #1, a National Historic Landmark, is open to the public for free self-guided tours. Youll learn about this former nuclear reactor plant and

iring a licensed outfitter is one of the best ways to enhance your hunting or fishing experience. Guides are very knowledgeable about their areas and the species being hunted or fished. Their expertise can make a real difference in the success of your trip. One major advantage in booking your hunting trip through an Idaho outfitter is that deer and elk tags are easy to obtain. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game allocates tags specifically for non-resident hunters who book with licensed outfitters.

Idaho has the widest variety of game in the U.S. including trophy elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep, antelope, bear, moose, cougar, mountain goat, whitetail deer, waterfowl, and upland game birds. Hunting seasons are as long as 65 days in the backcountry and overall success rates are high. Many permits are readily available because of Idahos unique system of outfitters. There is little hunter congestion and effective management policies promote healthy species growth and control. Non-resident licenses are available at most sport shops around the state.

Native cutthroat trout have lived in Idaho waters for centuries and trout fishing is available across the state. Sturgeon, the largest freshwater fish in North America, can be found in the Snake, Kootenai, and Salmon Rivers. Experts call the Henrys Fork in eastern Idaho the worlds premier dry-fly fishing stream. Writer Ernest Hemingway, who lived in Ketchum, loved Silver Creek near Picabo. Other excellent streams include the Teton River and the South Forks of the Snake and Boise Rivers.

Youll soon find out why winter really does sizzle here. 1-800-84-IDAHO visitidaho.org/winter parksandrecreation.idaho.gov sledtherockies.com skiidaho.us idahowinter.org
Skiing and Snowboarding

Idaho set the standard for the ultimate winter vacation in America. In 1935, Averell Harriman of the Union Pacific Railroad sent Austrian Count Felix Schaffgotsch to search the West for the perfect ski mountain. He found the best terrain near the small mining town of Ketchum. Since 1939, people from around the world have schussed down Sun Valleys famous sunkissed slopes. And with the new gondola, youll get to the top even faster.
Schweitzer Mountain Resort in Sandpoint offers on-mountain lodging, restaurants, and shops, all with a stunning view of Lake Pend Orielle below. Kelloggs Silver Mountain whisks you to the top on the worlds largest single-stage gondola. Lookout Pass, which opened in 1935 on the Montana border, receives over 400 inches of snow annually. Brundage Mountain Resort is also blessed with over 320 inches of snow annually. Its best known for its powdery glades, luxuriously long runs and few crowds. After skiing, enjoy the ambiance of McCall, a charming mountain village beside Payette Lake. If youre visiting Boise in the winter, youll have many choices at Bogus Basin Mountain Recreation Area, just 16 miles up the mountain from downtown. This urban resort offers day and night downhill and Nordic skiing, plus a tubing hill. A complete directory of Idahos 18 ski areas is located on page 134 or check out the following resources:
The Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation operates a unique program called Park N Ski with thirteen separate trail systems across the state, several with overnight yurt lodging. Most Park N Ski areas offer groomed trails, restrooms, and warming shelters. Snowshoeing is also allowed at many of these areas, either on separate trails or adjacent to set ski tracks. Annual parking passes can be purchased at state park offices, sports shops, or ranger stations nears trailheads. For a free Park N Ski Guide, call 208-334-4199.
Snowmobiling
Idaho entices sledders with more than 7,200 miles of beautifully groomed trails and an endless horizon of powder. In fact, Idaho has more groomed trails than any other western state. Situated on the western slopes of the Continental Divide, Idaho catches snow from storms coming in off the Pacific Ocean and, depending on the elevation, it is usually light and ideal for sledding. With a long season that extends from November to April, youll have plenty of time to take it all in. Gas, food, and lodging are always nearby in friendly Idaho towns, and many resorts and guest ranches welcome snowmobilers. All of Idahos groomed snowmobile trails are clearly marked. Consider using a licensed guide to take you off the beaten path through open, unspoiled backcountry. The Idaho Outfitters and Guides Association can provide information on guides who will make your trip safe and more exciting.
1-800-84-IDAHO, visitidaho.org/winter skiidaho.us
Nordic Skiing
The magical beauty and quiet tranquility of winter is best experienced on a pair of skinny skis. Cross-country skiing is a way of life in Idaho and with a variety of trails for all skiers, your vacation here will be unforgettable. Many of the ski resorts maintain Nordic terrain complete with skating trails. You can ski in many of Idahos national forests and state parks as well.
