Idaho is Outdoor Enthusiast's Dream

By: Sonia Carstens

Tourism is a lucrative industry in all countries, and states have to do their best to convince people to come to their state and spend some time and money there. The advertising strategies often include exaggerations and the usual superlative experiences of their particular state. Whether in print or electronic media they vie with each other to attract the maximum number of tourists.

Unfortunately, advertising is not always true. While the places advertised in those marketing campaigns may actually exist, they are often misrepresented. Any state can boast of having plenty of activities for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy but that does not really mean anything.

However, most of what is said about Idaho is true. It does not try to sell itself as the theme park capital of the world or the Mecca for gamblers where you can become rich overnight or catch the bus home. Idaho is just a beautiful place with its natural wonders that attract visitors.

It is a fact that the state of Idaho has the most wildlife acres under federal protection in this country. The largest protected refuge is Boise National Forest and it boasts over 2.6 million acres of land and water to explore.

Idaho National Forest is the next largest protected refuge. It combines together three national parks namely, Coeur d'Alene, Kaniksu, and the St. Joe National Forests. It is quaintly located in the northern part of Idaho. With a wide array of activities, it is a hot favorite of people who love outdoor activities.

The Idaho National Forest covers some of the most ruggedly beautiful mountains in all of the Rockies. There are four different mountain ranges that include Selkirk, Cabinet, Coeur d-Alene, and the Bitterroot Mountains. These daunting heights attract rock climbers from all over the world to test their skills. They find the challenge to scale these mountains irresistible since they are considered difficult because of their rugged nature and absence of accessible paths up the sides of the mountains.

Not only rock climbers but even hunters and fishermen come to Idaho to test their skills. Hunters find the mule deer, Rocky Mountain Elk, and other big game animals in Idaho. It’s not surprising to find a lot of visitors during hunting season who come hoping to bag a trophy. The fishermen hope to get hold of great salmon. That explains why the area is a hot bed for fishing enthusiasts as well.

Idaho does not offer the tourist attractions that some other states offer in their advertisement but it is a great place to spend some good time in peace and tranquility with friends and family. It is an experience not to be forgotten in a lifetime. Its mountains, rivers, lakes, and streams wait to welcome you to a place you were meant to live, or at least visit once in your life. Idaho is the place for you if you love to be part of the excitement thrown by pristine landscape and rugged mountainous beauty.
