Boise to Yellowstone

Pete Lanciers · 08-01-2020, 10:35 PM

My dear bride announced today that she's remodeling the kitchen, I knew I should've blocked that damn HGTV network! So I'm contemplating an extended Div 6 road trip, Boise Divisional followed by the Yellowstone Regional... Anybody made the tow from Boise to Yellowstone? Looks like you got three options the 93, the 26 or the 15, wondering which route provides the best tow, most forgiving grades? Thanks in advance!

84 to 86 to 15 in Pocatello. Go north to Idaho falls and take 26 towards West Yellowstone. At Henrys lake I always turned and went through Ennis, Mt and over to Three Forks to hit Interstate 90 to Billings. You can go on into West Yellowstone instead of turning at Henry's Lake and up to Bozeman to hit 90 also. About the same distance but more tourist traffic. lot more scenic drive though. There's a big pull on 26 coming out of Ashton, Id. and another one past Ennis. Pretty good one east of Bozeman also on 90.

Brother, it sounds like your advocating 84 to 86 to 15 to 90 route, do I have that right?
