The Bone Road - It's famous among locals; a 60-mile stretch of empty, potholed road through some of the most spectacular scenery in all of Idaho. It's not on very many road maps, but it goes from the north end of Soda Springs to the town of Iona. It's common to see moose, elk, deer, badgers, coyotes and occasionally a mountain lion. I even sighted a gyrfalcon once, a very rare treat indeed.
