Idaho is epic!
 

A couple of people gave incredulous responses when we said we were going to Idaho for our two-week vacation. After motorcycle trips to the Yukon and back, to Jasper and Banff, Yellowstone, to national parks in Utah, and, of course, travel all over Europe, we were going to Idaho?!

Yes. It was my idea. I was ready for an adventure closer to home (Oregon), one that didn't require us to ride for 700 miles over two days on the Interstate just to start a vacation.

All of the photos from the trip are online, with descriptions (includes a photo of our route).

Here are the travel point highlights:

• Hell's Canyon drive from Oxbow Bridge along the Snake River to the Hell's Canyon dam and then back over Oxbow dam to Cambridge, Idaho
• Historic Silver City, Idaho
• Bruneau Dunes State Park, Idaho
• City of Rocks National Reserve, Idaho
• Sawtooth Scenic Byway, Idaho
• Salmon River Scenic Byway, Idaho
• Historic Custer, Idaho
• Ft. Missoula, Montana
• Wallace, Idaho
• Lake Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
• White Pine Scenic Byway, Idaho
• Hell's Canyon Overlook, Oregon
• Joseph, Oregon
• Painted Hills, Oregon
• Little Crater Lake, Oregon

Here is the travelogue with all the details of the trip. Includes our really bad experience with Progressive roadside assistance (bah!) and our FIRST experience with a flat (unbelievable that we've been so lucky so far).
