Crystal Gold Mine - Kellogg
The Crystal Gold Mine is an authentic 1880s underground gold mine. Visitors can
take a guided tour and see demonstrations of how gold was mined in the
nineteenth century. The mine, originally built in 1879 by Tom Irwin, a
prospector, was in use for about three years and then abandoned and eventually
forgotten. It was rediscovered in 1991 and has been uncovered and developed for
use as an educational and tourist attraction.
Idaho Potato Expo - Blackfoot
Located in an old Railroad Depot, the Idaho Potato Expo showcases the history of
the Idaho potato industry. Displays include the largest potato chip (made by the
Pringles Company), information on the growing and harvesting of potatoes.
Craters of the Moon National Monument - Arco
The Craters of the Moon National Monument encompasses three major lava fields
and 250,000 acres of sagebrush steppe grasslands. The lava field is the largest
young basaltic lava field in the lower 48 states. There are more than 25
volcanic cones and sixty distinct lava flows. There are hiking trails, including
trails that take you into caves. This national monument is almost completely
undeveloped, with only one paved road running through the park.
