Idaho is America’s best kept secret. Despite Senator Larry Craig and his restroom adventures, the state is great.

I did some archeology survey work near Boise in 1995, which was a great experience. We found several Native American artifacts, mainly lithic scatters, worked rock, and some projectile points. We also found a lot of frontier era artifacts (too much cool stuff to list).

In high school (way back in the day) we used to drive from Logan up to Preston to buy beer. At the time 19 year olds were legal, and living only 20 miles or so from the border … well, you get the picture.

As a Boy Scout we camped out at City of Rocks, a big “rock forest” that offers easy climbs and even easier rappelling. I also searched for some rumored buried stagecoach treasure, but didn’t find any (sadness).

Idaho has a lot to offer. Check it out.
