I have an urgent inclusion!

The city of lewiston must be included. They have a big paper mill I used to always take loads out of.

When you go in from the north there is a huge hill that is one of the coolest places with the nost mind blowing view I have ever been. I will need to dig out my pictures and figure out how to add them. Check it out thoroughly in your research!

I been up to Idaho a few times, some things that I remember:

US 93 coming up from Jackpot, Nevada connects right to Twin Falls and I-84 running through the Magic Valley. The Perrine bridge that crosses the Snake River and the nearby Shoshone Falls Park are pretty noteworthy scenry imo. rbsanford covered this in post #5, but I thought I'd second this.

US 95 coming down from Canada through the Idaho Panhandle (only US highway afaik through the area) to Coeur d' Alene is also very scenic (forests). Coeur d' Alene isn't very far from Spokane, Washington, so hopefully there's room for both.

The plant in question is called Potlatch, and the Lewiston Grade, as its commonly called rises up from the Snake River Valley before a junction takes you either to Pullman, WA or Moscow, ID [No, not Moscow Russia :D :P ]

Possible Garage locations:

Cour'de Alene, ID [spelling?]

Lewiston, ID

Boise, ID

Twin Falls, ID

Poccatello, ID

Idaho Falls, ID

@Izmaragon - 'Coeur d'Alene' is what it's called. Also, 'Pocatello' only has one 'c'.

Guessing you haven't heard of Google Maps?

This is a must-include area, IMO:

Wallace, Idaho, was slated for destruction as the Interstate came through, in order to pass this narrow clearing in the mountains. The residents fought this by designating the entire town as a national historic place, forcing a viaduct to be built on I-90.

it snakes along around the town.

That is the Boise Idaho tempter for the Church of Jesus Christ of Later-day Saints. You can find links to a photo gallery, a map of the area, and more, by visiting this page. Is this the one you were thinking about AngryBirdSeller?
Yes, you can see from I-84 yeah.
