US 89 Idaho Route

There isn't much of US 89 in The State of Idaho.  In fact, you can fit it all on just one map clip.  US 89 arrives at Bear Lake in Garden City, Utah, a popular summer destination.  Turning slight northwest, US 89 heads along the west short of Bear Lake to the tiny communities of Fish Have, St. Charles, Bloomington, Paris and Ovid before arriving in busy Montelier.

Afvter passing through Geneva, Idaho, 15 miles east of Montpelier, US 89 turns north and parallels the Idaho line for a a few miles before crossing the Wyoming state line.

Don't let US 89's short distance in Idaho fool you.  There's plenty to do and you can easily make a day or more out of your time in Idaho.

The two top attractions are in Paris and Montpelier.  Paris is famous for the LDS Bear Lake Stake Tabernacle there.  It is a "must see" structure.  The workmanship in this old building is the finest we've ever seen.

Meanwhile, US 89 crosses the famous Oregon Trail in Montpelier. There's a very substantial, top notch Oregon Trail Visitor Center located there.  It's another one of those "must see" interpretive facilities you simply can't miss.

Eventually, we will add some additional linkages and maybe photos here.
