Usually when Idaho is topping a national chart it is for something positive but not this time. AAA Idaho did a study and on average in the gem state we had a 20-cent jump, in one month. That is a substantial leap for a 30 day period.

Mackay, Idaho is often called the 'top of Idaho' since it is at the base of Mt. Borah who's peak reaches 12,662 feet, the highest point in the gem state. It is a sight to see with natural beauty all around and a small western charm town that is plugging away in its own world.

The Treasure Valley and Boise area is such a fantastic place to explore. Interestingly enough sometimes when you grow up somewhere you don't visit the classic 'visit' spots. Some of these you probably could knock out on class field trips but after that how many of these places have you been to?
