People from Idaho would tell you, "It sucks here! Don't come! You'll hate it."

The reality is that this track takes you through one of the most beautiful parts of the US. Oregon and Idaho have an amazing array of climates and landscapes. You could be wakeboarding along an almost tropical Snake River in Hells Canyon in the morning and then hiking in the high alpine of the Wallowa Range later that day.

Truly my favorite part of the country and I'm glad that it's not overrun with tourists.

Hah! That sounds very similar to Wyoming. I've seen more than one shirt and heard more than one person say "Yes, Wyoming sucks. Now go home and tell all your friends!"

The weather isn't so great (spring and fall may as well not exist, it just feels like you go from freezing winter to blazing summer), but the scenery is truly hard to beat. Also, Yellowstone.

yesss… "It sucks here! Don't come! You'll hate it."
