The Snake River carves through the rugged canyons of this region, and offers countless falls that burst gloriously from the steep walls spilling 250 feet or more to the river and parkland below which is home to abundant wildlife and waterfowl. The state preserved tracts of land to protect the eco-systems along this rich canyon floor. Visitors are given the opportunity to explore, bird-watch, canoe, hike, fish and picnic here.
Southeastern Idaho represents Idaho's rich farmland. In addition, it holds a desert garden of flora and fauna that prosper within this areas' nutrient-rich earth. The soil, enriched by the extensive volcanic activity that occurred in this area ages ago, extends into Blackfoot, Potato Capital of Idaho, and most likely the world. It is where they grow the enormous potatoes that gave Idaho its nick-name, The Potato State.
Eastern Idaho runs from Idaho Falls north to Island Park to the famed trout fishery of Henry's Lake, also the gateway to Yellowstone Park. The eastern border of Idaho is skirted by the spectacular Teton Mountain Range rising up from neighboring Wyoming. The Teton Scenic Byway offers glimpses of one of the world's most magnificent ranges and passes through the small towns of Victor, Driggs and Tetonia that today evolve around outdoor recreation. Better known as the Teton Valley where a warm welcome and genuine Idaho western hospitality are sure to make your visit a special experience. |
