City of Rocks National Reserve

Here you will find a city of gorgeous, giant white rocks scattered along the scenic drive with even more to see and be found with some off the beaten path day hiking adventures. The scenic drive to heart of where you can see the best of the area is a round trip of about 30 minutes. This was my first real stop of the day and the last visit for Idaho and next time I'm going to be sure to include some time for some day hiking and a more thorough visit. 

The most memorable part was that I accidentally left Baby Yoda on the entrance sign after taking a photo. I didn't realize it until I was about 2 hours away at Golden Spike NHP. Thankfully the wonderful rangers of the park found him and happily shipped him home. It made the return leg of the trip a little more lonely not having him stare at me from the dashboard while I was driving or on my hip while I was hiking.
