FIRST's original intention was to have MT and ID as part of the PNW District. MT teams would have had way too much additional travel so they were quickly dropped. It was put out to the RD for the ID area to poll their teams and see if the teams wanted to join or not. For the S. ID teams it would have meant a lot more travel as many of them did not traditionally play in PNW Regionals. There was some talk of the N. ID teams joining but from what I've heard the majority did not want to join. FIRST does have to draw a line somewhere and while they would prefer to follow state lines they were willing to let N. ID teams join.

I can't speak as to why any particular team or teams did not want to join the PNW district.
