Enjoy thevisitor center, outdoor amphitheater,Sacajawea monument, and a one-mileinterpretive trail.Immerse yourself further in the explorers’experience by driving up to LemhiPass on the Lewis and Clark BackcountryByway.

Itwas here that the dream of an easy routeto the Pacific died as the explorers gazedupon seemingly endless mountainsahead. The byway is a 38-mile, singlelanegravel road with steep grades, but itis certainly worth the journey.Craters of the MoonMiddle Fork Salmon RiverSawtooth MountainsLost River Rangevisitidaho.org |105Sun Valley Resort Golf Course

Help us “Stop Aquatic Hitchhikers” and keep Idaho waters pure andmussel free! Watercraft inspections are an important element of theIdaho’s invasive species prevention efforts. The Invasive Species Passporttracks your inspections and allows inspectors to give an expedited“low-risk” inspection to local boaters and spend additional time scrutinizing“high-risk” boats that have come into the Pacific Northwest frommussel fouled waters. The Passports are voluntary—you are notrequired to have or keep one—but they can help you to get out on thewater faster! We encourage you to enjoy Idaho’s waters, and thank youfor your participation in keeping them as pristine as possible.visitidaho.org |115
