Show Idaho — a State of Mind T DAHO U a state that can ' become a state of mind You can feel the freedom as you cross its borders In the winds building dust spirals in the sagebrush plains in the rolling hills where thunderheads march across the sky and in the rythm of unleashed waters slicing their routes to the sea there is a spirit only the wild things know Something untamed and intangible —and precious And it becomes a part of you and gives you a new carefreeness and you throw trip schedules and planned routes out the window and you just roam Free low Paul Bunyan’s "Big Ditch" to Burley and Twin Falls where the deep gorge of the Snake River is awesome and spectacular beneath the 400-fo- rim-to-ri- So after a day or two at Sun Valley or in Ketchum or Hailey where everyone is a fishing expert and ready and willing to part with the latest t informa- tion you head out on Highway 93a through the desert You wonder at the infernal upheaval that burst through the lava formations to pile up huge craters and create massie mounds of cinders where delicate flowers are etched against the dead black barrenness of the Craters of the Moon You can see many major features of this monument from your car d or you can follow well-marke- trails through the strange twisted lava beds Then you cut east from Arco cross the desert through the heart of the Atomic Energy Commission’s National Reactor Testing Station and reach Idaho Falls and US 191 You’re now 50 miles north of Pocatello and again headed for Island Park Unless yesterday in the Snug Bar at Hailey someone said “let’s go over Galena Pass and down the Salmon River I hear the salmon run’s on” Then the Iord knows where you are! we try Silver Creek and the Wood River see Sun Valley and the Craters of the Moon first?” So you're now headed west instead of north and along US 30n you stop to view the grandeur of American Falls then fol V- ot bridge That doesn't mean you won’t go where you’ve planned It’s just that you'll likely go somewhere you just thought of before you reach your destination and some other place later which you just learned about You have started for say Island Park and a day or so of fishing before a tour of Yellowstone Park And in the Bannock Hotel’s Roundup Room at Pocatello someone says "why don’t ?
