The other really cool stop is take the HWY 93 exit, towards Twin Falls. You will cross the Snake, right on the edge of town. I love stopping there. Totally amazing.

I would like to go just one time and see what it is like.  Also would strongly consider running my Bus Conversion through the traps to see just how fast it would go.  If lots of $us$ did this, then we would know who has the fastest Bus Conversion.  HB of CJ (old coot). :)

If there were races going on its worth going to.   Otherwise its a lot like standing in a snow covered field that is about 90 above.
  If you drive off of the packed areas its a lot like snow.  I ended up putting the pickup in 4 wheel while out of the packed  areas.  If you sink.  Your done.  Mud underneath.  Large wreckers and money involved.
