July 10: Bruneau Sand Dunes and the Oregon Trail

We are at Mountain Home, ID.

We took a drive on a scenic byway that followed the Snake River.
Snake River



Bruneau State Park Sand Dunes are about 20 miles from here and are considered to be the highest sand dunes in the country. An interesting phenomena to us was that the base of the sand dunes was the Snake River.

We then drove north of town to what was the Oregon Trail.
Rattlesnack Station was just north of town and was actually the first location for Mountain Home




The views were beautiful

Bailey came for the drive
 but was not real happy to pose for the photo

Love and hugs to all of you,
Barb, Linda and Bailey
