Ride Along the Scenic Highway 75 in Idaho

[MotoSam_imp]

Last week my brother, dad, and myself took a ride from Salt Lake City to Priest Lake in northern Idaho.

I brought my GoPro and took random videos along the way.

Very cool! I was up at Priest Lake a few weeks ago (in the plane instead of the bike).

That stretch of road looks familiar, but I don't know where highway 75 is. To me it looked a lot like U.S. 95 north of Hell's Canyon.

I love riding in Idaho. I just wish it didn't take so long to get there from Phoenix.

Next time you're up there, try U.S. 12 from Kooskia to Missoula. The best biking road I've ever ridden.

75 runs pretty much parallel with 93, but it's billed as a "Scenic Byway" of 93 and goes through Ketchum and then the Sawtooth National Forrest. It's a great road if you're heading up to Salmon/Missoula.

I would love to take 12 sometime, looking at Google Maps it looks like it would be great.
