Hell's Canyon to McCall Idaho on Yamaha TW200s. Stunning Scenery!!

Alright guys! Come join us on this bittersweet ride, as it's our last day in this fantastic state! What a trip of a lifetime we have had! Friends met and made, scenery that we will never forget and the overall fellowship with random folks on the trail made this trip worth every second! We head south from camp on a random route that turned out to be one of the best route's we had been on. That route will merge with the Idaho BDR near the old bus kind of and we will ride that with a couple side adventures you won't want to miss! #tw200 #dualsport
Make sure you check out the Giant Loop Armadillo Fuel Bag in this video at 38:40 and use this affiliate link to pick one up! There is no way we could have made this trip without it!!!

I'm glad you liked it. I've been that route. I've lived in Idaho all my life

[@PSBEadventures]

What a place and what a state! We met some fantastic people on this trip! We'll be back soon to explore some more! My buddy is from Fairfield and what made us make the trip. Seemed a world away and surreal seeing the wonders I'd only seen in pictures. It's a trip We'll never forget! Thanks for watching!

You didn't oversell it, this truly is stunning scenery! I really don't understand why anyone would want to live in a huge city, this is living!

Thanks so much man!! It was truly the trip of a lifetime! I think my buddy's place up in the sawtooths were some of my favorite spots. The entire state truly is a wonder of the world. We'll be back soon!

I live 125 miles from there I'm definitely taken my super moto over there. Thanks guys

[@twowheeledtaz]

Boise guy here. Grateful to live so close to this kind of riding and scenery. BTW - the Salmon River (the L is silent; it’s pronounced just like the fish it’s named for) is the longest undammed river in the lower 48 states.

[@PSBEadventures]

Yes sir, best riding we've ever done. We had a conversation about the L on one of our Idaho videos. I kept getting scolded by locals in Salmon Idaho. The L is definitely pronounced if you're a South Carolina redneck! No way around it! Grandma is having sa al mon patties, not sammon patties!! 🤣🤣 Thanks for watching man! You guys have an absolutely beautiful state! We'll be back!

[@born2ride14]

You should consider hosting/ guiding 2-5 day trips like this! I live in Fl, and it’s so expensive for me to ship my bike out there, and then fly . And takes too long for me to drive out there with the bikes in the trailer. You could have a small fleet 2-4 bikes and some gear.

[@PSBEadventures]

Now that's a thought!

Thanks for watching man! So we hauled the bikes 2800mi from Upstate SC to my buddy's place in Southern Idaho and rode the bikes north all the way to Wallace.

No way! From the forest Service?

[@collinmc90]

Great video. Getting me excited for my trip this Wednesday. Going camping on the very northern end of the WA BDR. Out near Loomis, WA. Just a one nighter shake down run. Got a good adventure planned, gonna look for this old cabin that belonged to a settler named James Duncan. Do a little gold panning and scouting for animals. Hope to find some turkey, grouse, deer, bear, and maybe just maybe hear a wolf.

[@PSBEadventures]

Sounds like a good time!!! Ride safe and have fun! Thanks for watching!

epic trip! really enjoyed the series.

It was an absolute fight to the finish with the Hero 9. Tons of footage didn't work out, but hopefully there was enough there to at least scratch the surface of what a wonderful place is out there. I sure had a good time making these. It really brought it back! Thanks for watching man!!!

[@PSBEadventures]

What an absolute fantastic place man!!! We started in Fairfield and rode the eastern side of the wilderness north, crossing into Lolo Montana, up Toboggan Ridge, into St Regis, and all the way to Wallace. Then headed south along this route. It was the trip of a lifetime! Appreciate you watching. Check the others out if ya want. Some of the best riding we've ever done hands down.

My husband and I just watched your entire Idaho trip, totally amazing!!! We loved it! We are in Arkansas and this is the type of riding I want to do! I have a Kawasaki KLX 230s and a Honda CRF 300LS, my husband is more in to long distance riding so he has some larger bikes, KTM 390 Adventure, 690 Enduro R and 890 Adventure. Oh he has a Yamaha XT 250 too lol. Amazing trip that I hope we can do some time by hauling a couple bikes out in our little toy hauler/camper and cruising around! Thanks for sharing!! ✌️😆

Awesome!!! If you'll shoot me a fb or IG message I can share the gpx route file we did! So glad you guys enjoyed it!!

Hope yall get to make the trip and thanks again for the comments!!!

That is beautiful country but the older I get the steeper and further those drop offs get. I'm a beginner at best I'm not wanting to ride on a road that has shear drops like that or where the trail ends after a blind hill into a drop of hundreds of feet! It's not worth my life! Not big on camping but if you need a "Bear Bag" I want to be awake and have a gun! Nice video I hope you get to continue to enjoy the parks and recreation areas!

[@PSBEadventures]

Understand that completely. There were places there where we were definitely out of our comfort zone. Look at the single track video here on the Idaho playlist. Some of that stuff got the adrenaline going for sure

Since 1980 the population of Idaho has DOUBLED! The quality of life has dropped proportionately to the invasive non-native hoard. Showing EVERYONE how great it is here only accelerates the decline. My heart longs for what was, and aches for what has been lost. Riggins.........

[@PSBEadventures]

@quarterminutemagnums you're right man.... I do miss a time when phones were hitched to the wall and the internet was never heard of. I often thought I shouldn't include where we were riding. My buddy's in Fairfield and his family has been there since the 1800s. The homestead is still there. He told me 25 years ago he could take his trail 90 to Canada and never have to hit much pavement. There's still only about 500 people in Fairfield. But I could tell the commiefornians have found places like Ketchum.

[@quarterminutemagnums]

@@PSBEadventures You could sit (sleep) in a lawn chair, dead center in the middle of Riggins, smack dab on highway US-95, and only encounter TWO cars in 12 hours! Often not a single vehicle would pass in an entire night! There were MANY old people who lived there that had never been to Lewiston or Boise! Half the houses used buried old cars for septic tanks! Once and only once, the bank was robbed by some fools who failed to consider -THERE IS ONLY ONE ROAD- teller used her CB radio to contact log truck drivers, they blocked the road with two loaded rigs, north and south, and trapped the bad guys in the canyon! Riggins........

[@PSBEadventures]

@quarterminutemagnums same way here man. My pop would hand crank churned ice cream on Saturday out on the porch and we might see a car or two, maybe. Northerners found the lakes and now it's grand central station. Cars at 3am and around the clock. I too miss the good ole days
