The action-packed film starts with three-dimensional views of the Grand Tetons, the source of the Snake River. Potential “space travelers” get a preview at Craters of the Moon. Sun Valley has many pleasant surprises with facilities for 20 different sports. After seeing Balanced Rock and the Petroglyphs, there are spectacular scenes of Thousand Springs lacing the walls of lava. The Hagerman parade gets the rodeo off in high gear. Excitement and adventure begin as thirty-four passengers board rubber boats and run the dangerous rapids of the Salmon, known as the “River of No Return,” and the twisting Snake River through Hells Canyon, the deepest in America. Idaho is sheep country where the beautiful 23rd Psalm becomes even more inspirational.
