    Our trip to SE Idaho complete, we started heading towards home. Of course, we'd never make it - a stop at Ben and Kirsten's @m3bassman being our jumping off point for another several-day adventure in their home state.

    ......We didn't pause long at any given site however - trucks pulling trailers and boats headed both ways along the road, prompting us to continue on. In fact, as had been true most of the day, there was so much traffic that Ben and Mikey didn't even stop as we passed what was perhaps the epitome of the #insta-overlanding boom that we find ourselves in these days - I mean, you can't get much more over-land than an airplane, can you? LOL.

    Read the first day and see what we saw:

    ...I didn't get going all that fast, but even at 15mph or so, when you've got the right depth of water, the effect can be dramatic. Everyone loved it, I think. I know I did. :)

    You know you want to see the rest, and hear about the snow we encountered. Check it all out at Stuck in the Snow! Washington Basin

    From there, it wasn't long before we found ourselves on North Peaks Road - first through the forest, and then through the tree line, making our way up, up, up. Then, there we were, getting high - the road the second highest in all of Idaho - on a beautiful day.

    See it all in Getting High in Idaho

    So up we went, the highest road in Idaho, ours for the travelling. There would be - at least for a moment - no Toyota's higher.

    Check out the highest road in Idaho, and the weirdest mine to boot - Getting Even Higher in Idaho, Again
