​Spotlight Magazine - Boise Bucket List

If you move to or even visit a new city, there is an inevitable list of things you must do to be considered a local. It might be a particular cup of coffee, a certain celebrity sighting, or an athletic feat specific to the area’s geography. Of course, you can do any of those things in Idaho too—but our vast and beautiful landscape offers experiences so rich that they warrant an entire bucket list. Whether you’re in the mood for the great outdoors, the cultured indoors, a good meal, or something else, the Treasure Valley is full of gems.
​GET OUT(SIDE)

➤ Essential Information: From major rivers to hidden streams, Idaho boasts some of the nation’s best waterways for fly fishing. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned professional, check out Idaho Angler for gear, guides, and more to make your trip one to remember.
