Ennis Oregon Trail: Victor, ID to Ontario, OR

Leg 4 – Victor, Idaho to Ontario, OR

Miles: 390

Hours: 6 driving, 3 hiking 

Things of Interest: Craters of the Moon, Best Buy, Lego Store

Today is the day Kevin has been waiting for — after a quick breakfast we headed off to Craters of the Moon National Park, and it did not disappoint at all. Lava beds everywhere, lots of hiking and tons of education on the regrowth of the area. We were able to walk inside two volcano cones and hike through a lava tunnel. Really cool experience. 

We then had to head into Boise to Best Buy, because Kevin’s phone literally exploded last night. Plus a brand new Lego store was built in Boise a couple months ago, so we had to pop in to get a passport stamped. In true fashion, his passport was passed around by the workers to see all his cool stamps. 

Easy dinner at Panda Express and off to bed. We officially crossed over into Oregon, so almost to our destination.
