Idaho

An outdoor state in the northern Rockies, with mountains, river canyons and hot springs ideal for hiking, rafting and skiing.

Idaho lies in the inland northwestern United States, narrow in the north and wide in the south, with terrain dominated by mountains and the Snake River Plain. The capital, Boise, is the largest city, and Sun Valley is a famous ski resort; Hells Canyon is one of the deepest river gorges in North America, Craters of the Moon National Monument showcases lava landscapes, and Lake Coeur d'Alene in the north is a lakeside resort destination. Summer is good for hiking and rafting, and winter for skiing. The main gateway is Boise Airport, and the north can also be reached via Spokane, Washington.
