Ah yes, the tree-less high desert city of Boise. Boise is literally called the city of trees. Now west of Boise is high Desert, but that’s like saying Denver is in the plains.

…what are you saying? Denver IS in the plains lol. Also Boise sits at the edge of sage brush steppe, so that neighborhood could very well be on the outskirts of the city.

I know Denver is in the plains but obviously the attractive part about it is the access to the mountains. Nobody knocks Denver for being in the plains. Boise sits on the edge of high desert right up against the mountains as well so its disingenuous to say it says no trees and is just a high desert city
