Idaho is an awesome place to go to enjoy the wonders of nature. With the Grand Tetons in the background, it is a great place to go to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Living in Rexburg, I have been able to experience many different beautiful outdoor activities. I always recommend hiking Cress Creek and going up Kelly Canyon to either rockclimb or zipline. There are also some swimming pools and relaxing natural hot springs at Heise Hot Springs. You can golf and camp right on the banks of the Snake River, which is famous for Rainbow Trout fishing. I also highly recommend spelunking in the surrounding area. There are famous wind caves and ice caves. You'll want to bring some warm clothes, even though you can only go through the caves in the middle of summer. Not a fan of small spaces? That's ok, there's plenty to do outside of a cave! How about a hike up a butte? It's not what you're thinking. Despite the awkward spelling, buttes are collapsed and inactive volcanoes, which makes them pretty cool. Below I will list off a few of my favorite sites to visit while you're here:
