Bear River Heritage Area - Logan, Idaho
This area straddles the Idaho-Utah border where the Great Basin and the Rocky Mountains come together. The roughest beauty of the area is well worth seeing as you enjoy all there is to do in the area.
Come and enjoy the Bear Lake Hot Springs which emerge at 118 degrees Fahrenheit. The mineral water is cooled as flows through the mountains to the tubs. This relaxing visit will have you ready for all the other things there are to do and see in the area, and then you may want to come back to take another relaxing dip before heading home from your vacation.
Shoshone Indian Ice Caves - Shoshone, Idaho
This lava tube is 1,000 ft. long with a ceiling height of between 8 and 30 ft. The collapsed roof serves as an entrance. The cold trap effect and the extremely different temperatures in Idaho between the summer and the winter make it a perfect ice cave. Now, the cold air flows down into the cave during the winter and freezes all the water entering the cave through fractures. This produces a continuous layer of ice. It is cold in the cave (obviously) with a temperature between -7 degrees C. and .5 degrees C depending on which area you are in. The outside temperature may reach 37 degrees C so warm cloths and sturdy shoes are a must.
Idaho's American Falls Attraction
Idaho has something that is completely amazing that is unlike any other feature located throughout the world. That is the American falls. The American Falls are larger than those that you will find in Niagara, though far too many people do not realize that they are there. Stop at the American Falls Visitors Center to find out more about the falls. There, you will find all the information you need about this amazing American landscape.
