Payette River Scenic Byway

We've driven this section of the byway several times.  It has been the source of our first and most frequent bald eagle sightings.  The river along this stretch from Banks, ID to Horseshoe Bend, ID is a popular one for kayaks and white water raft tours.   Here are some pictures from our first drive along the byway.
