After returning from South America, I got bored so decided to fly up to Seattle to meet a friend and take a little road trip. We started in Seattle and started driving south to Portland.
On the way to Portland, we stopped in Amboy to do some good ol' bungee jumping from a ridiculously high bridge. It was AMAZING and a ton of fun. I'm convinced if you can get over your fear of bungee (which I had), you can conquer anything.

Then we continued on to Portland, which is about 3 and a half hours from Seattle and maybe an hour from Amboy.
We only stopped in Portland to eat lunch then headed out again east for Idaho. Idaho is incredibly easy to drive. Great roads and minimal traffic but it looks WAY different than Seattle and Oregon. It looks like this and yes, it's this bad.

The last destination for me was Salt Lake City and after stopping in
the middle of the night about 2 hours outside of SLC to get a few hours
of sleep, we continued our way into SLC. We did a little sightseeing
around SLC before I got dropped off at the SLC airport and flew back to
San Jose while my friend continued on to Colorado. There is so much to
see in the states and very few take advantage of it. I've been to quite a
few states but really haven't seen THAT much of it so I look forward to
seeing more!
