Just to the north is the tourism region they call Yellowstone-Teton Territory — www.yellowstoneteton.org — where the emphasis is more on wild rivers, thick forests and mountains. This is the sort of country where you might want to consult the directory of outfitters for a hunting or fishing trip, or consider a guest ranch instead of a motel. Look under "Things to Do" to learn where you can go rock climbing or biking, do some more fishing, watch wildlife or just take a scenic drive. That's also where you'll find the link to the Idaho Centennial Carousel, a lovingly restored antique.

Don't overlook Idaho Parks and Recreation — www.idahoparks.org — which has a map where you can click on the region's highlights including Harriman State Park, which boasts eight miles of fly-fishing on Henry's Fork.

And if you're going after the trout in Henry's Fork or Bear Lake, Idaho Fish and Game — fishandgame.idaho.gov/fish/ — has license information and regulations, as well as helpful regional fishing information.

Take the time to expand your travel horizons around the rest of the state with the help of the official Idaho Travel and Tourism Guide — www.visitid.org — where you can browse through "Attractions" from the Craters of the Moon to the Idaho Potato Expo, or sample the suggestions under "Vacation Ideas."
