Miracle Hotsprings (Buhl, Idaho)

One of my favorite commercial hot springs stop-offs in the American Wild West. Right off of the scenic byway - Thousand Springs in Idaho, off US-80, about a 1/2 hour detour from the interstate lies a small little resort called "Miracle Hot Springs." It has several public geothermal pools, numerous private tubs/pools, a pet alligator, canvas group camping domes, tent areas, and a campsite for RVs with a small riverboat launch. Located across the highway and down the road from the Snake River.

The Oregon Trail

I remember growing up hearing about the Oregon Trail as a video game, then come graduation I drove part of it when I headed to the West Coast. The Oregon Trail is a pioneer trail that extends approximately 2,170 miles from the Eastern to the Western United States. It was used by large-wheeled wagons by primarily Euro-American settlers heading West before the railways were built. It was originally carved by trappers and fur traders from 1811 until 1840, only passable by horseback and foot.
