I worked for Boise Cascade Corporation, for 15 years ending in 1990. I traveled to many a corporate meeting in Boise. I am a native of Seattle, but during those years was living in North Carolina, and Ohio. Here are my impressions in the form of short statements or words.

High desert, cold in the winter, hot in the summer, cowboys, potatoes, rural,
tumble weeds, healthy, skiing, fly fishing, the great outdoors, lily white. Once you get out of the city , the next cities are miles and miles away.

Everyone, I knew that got tranferred there really like living there. However, people often say that about places they have lived.

Personally, it is too much in the middle of nowhere for me.
