This weekly column features news stories and event announcements from around the American Redoubt region. (Idaho, Montana, eastern Oregon, eastern Washington, and Wyoming.) Much of the region is also more commonly known as The Inland Northwest. We also mention companies of interest to preppers and survivalists that are located in the American Redoubt region. Today, a special look at touring destinations in the region. I often have consulting clients from the eastern United States ask me “What is it like”?” questions. You really need to come and see for yourself. Schedule a lengthy trip! – JWR

12 Stunning Places To Visit In The Inland Northwest. A quote from the article’s opening:
“You probably hear a lot about the Pacific Northwest. Its gorgeous mountains, stunning coastline, and hundreds of miles of trails make it hard to beat!
But did you know, that only a half-day’s drive away, there is another region worth checking out called the Inland Northwest?
This area and its borders can differ depending on the person, but we like to define it as Eastern Washington, Idaho, western Montana, and parts of Wyoming and Eastern Oregon!”
