That's incredible! I've always heard good things about it, but you just sold it to me! I'll look at making out there! When is the best time of year to go?
It all depends on what you want to do! The summer is hard to beat. With the sun being up and shining around 18-24 hours a day in the summer months, it is always a good time coming up between June-August. That is when you'll enjoy temperatures of around 55F- 80F. The weather up here is very sporadic so you'll probably enjoy everything from sunshine to storms in a few days alone. We have world renown train tours that can take you to a good amount of the state and provide you with virtually limitless options for activities, whether you are looking for something to fill your day or want to go on a multi-day backpacking trip. It is also a good place to not plan anything specific and just let your whims take you! Come up and get lost for a bit, I highly recommend it.
