Best crawling ever.

[Tunedfrog]

This is the very reason I love Idaho. Less than an hour from my front door. We went up Grouse hunting but I forget Elk opens this weekend so the mountains were pretty busy with campers. This is always incredible places to crawl..

Omg dude that spot is awesome

Omg dude that spot is awesome

I so need to be there just to walk it
Reminds me of the foot hills in Boulder Colorado. When I lived there. I so miss being out west...so jealous rite now

 

[Tunedfrog]

It is beautiful country for sure. We have the Manns Creek area only 15 minutes from us and this place is about an hour or so from us.

I have to drive for almost two hours to find something like that!

The wife and I love it here in Idaho. My son moved to texas 4 years ago but came back to Idaho this July simply because he missed it.

 

[Chubaka]

Makes me wanna drive up thee. I have the same, but all sand and weeds, atleast until a few more counties north.

I have been looking up areas in Idaho and Utah for like 2 weeks. I thought Colorado was beautiful. Idaho and Utah are just as amazing from what I have seen, minus Pike's Peak and the Royal Gorge. Those are pretty much awe inspiring sights in Colorado. And those kinda views just continue though the Rockies.

I wish I had done a LOT more driving around this country when I was still able to do so. My dad died wishing he had seen the Grand Canyon, but he never really went too far from home. I wish I had realized how much I would feel the same as him once I got older.

I've been to a lot of different sight seeing placing in AZ when I lived there years ago and honestly, imho, the Grand Canyon was my least favorite. Not that its not cool but its the least cool out of all the places I've seen in that state.

 

[Doom!]

I'll never be able to escape California, but if I could, I'd think about Idaho as a serious destination.

 

[Tunedfrog]

I lived in AZ years ago and I agree, The Grand Canyon is ok the first time but not that exciting if you visit several times.

This is just 32 miles north of me, but the last time I was here was 6 years ago, and I was in severe pain by the time I got back to my vehicle then. I could never make it back into this area of this park now. These are just a few of the many locations in this park that would be wicked cool crawling territory. It can be 100°F outside, and when you get back here it is always cool and comfortable.

It isn't too far from where they hold Axialfest. Top location is Axialfest on this map, and I am about the same distance south of the bottom location, which is Turkey Run State Park.

That certainly is beautiful country! Luckily, I also have plenty of natural, wild beauty here in New England. While I work in the metropolis of Boston, I live just across the border on the NH side. Wild places are in close proximity all around me. 2 hours away are the majestic white mountains. The natural beauty of Maine and Vermont are just a hop and a skip away as well.
RC has taken all my free time this year, so I didn't get any camping or day hike excursions in this year. The last couple of years had me spending a lot of time playing in the woods and water (kayaking/fishing). I really enjoyed day hikes deep into the woods, setting up my hammock, building a small fire for a quick meal, then just chilling back in the hammock and taking in the scenery and serenity.
Once my RC fever cools off a bit, I'll get back out there again. I'm just on a little break right now

Awesome country.
We live about 12 blocks or so from the Oregon border and there is some beautiful country there as well.

I watch that show North Woods Law and there certainly is some beautiful areas up that way.

Agree

You guys are killin' me! Even if I made it up to the Sierras everything is super dry right now.

Thats prob the best thing about S.E. TN. You can go just a hr or so away from home and feel like ur so deep u can't find your way out. Or if u like the city life Atlanta and Nashville about equal 2hr drive. The mountains here are a beautiful site. We have the Smoky Mtns. Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburgh TN. Very cool. But a bit touristy also

The most awesome thing about being retired is the fact our weekends are Monday thru Friday. Rarely do we see other people when we go to the mountains. Today was a bit different because of the hunters.

This is the very reason I don't go to the popular areas much, such as the White Mountains. Too many people! I seek the quiet town forests and paths least traveled.

I live on a couple blocks from one of the most dangerous highways in Idaho.
As a matter of fact, 5 years ago my mother was T-boned by a semi and we almost lost her.
On weekends, we stay in town and off the highway.
