“What is there to do in Boise?”

Boise was great! Downtown was small but it was clean and spacious with fun bars and restaurants. And no homeless people! Freak Alley is also in downtown which has graffiti art that provides the city with some funky personality. It’s also walking distance to the capitol building. So that was it, you seesee the entire city in 10 minutes! Just kidding (sort of), but it was very refreshing to visit a downtown that felt safe and clean.

The drive up to Bogus Basin ski resort to hike Mores Mountain was scenic. The air was so fresh and clean, and the morning sky was so beautiful. We also hiked Table Rock, which is a more popular and local hike with an amazing view of the city.

Boise has so many parks. I think we passed by 5 parks when biking on the Boise Greenbelt along the Boise River, and we only rode for an hour! Hyde Park was probably my favorite. The neighborhood has an old Sacramento feel to it, and it’s also a popular place to drink and eat. Lucky for us, Hyde Park Street Fair was happening during our visit, so it was a lot of fun shopping at the different vendors and watching the local bands and performers.
