Nicknamed the "Gate City" in short of it's full nickname, The Gateway To The Northwest, Pocatello is a city often overlooked by those who pass by. Whether you know Pocatello for its once infamous city flag or as the home of the Idaho State University Bengals, it's a place that seems to have a connection to everyone.

Conveniently located just two hours north of Salt Lake City, three hours east of Boise, and 45 minutes south of Idaho Falls, there's a lot to do in any direction out of Pocatello. There's no wonder why it was deemed the Gateway to the Northwest. If you stay on I-15 heading north you'll hit I-90 which will take you all the way over to Seattle. Or, stay on I-84 and you'll travel to Portland and the famous Oregon coast. So, next time you're traveling to the northwest, be sure to make a stop at the gateway and spend some time there, you might be surprised at what you find.
It might not seem like much, this town of just over 50,000 people, but when you begin to dig a little you find that there's more here than meets the eye. Take in an Idaho State Bengals game inside Holt Arena, or simply enjoy many of the city's stellar mountain biking trails. You could also visit Zoo Idaho or catch a dinner theater show at the Palace Theater.
