Cute museum! I really liked how they set up areas to show how it would have been then. I learned a lot. It is small but informative.

This trip was definitely worth it, we stopped to check the ice caves out on a trip to here and the…read moreShoshone Falls. Don't let the outside fool you - it's a small few shacks with a large dinosaur out front, but once you get in it's a grand cave. There isn't as much ice as the people we came with remembered years and years ago, the latest snowfalls melting down into the caves dissipated it, but there are some sizeable ice formations in the front and back of the cave. Our guide (Garrett/Gareth) gave a fantastic tour, he is a local to the area and a new tour guide there. If he is available for your tour, know there will be some great humor and fun had by all. I would definitely recommend the Shoshone Ice Caves to anyone passing through, there have been visitors from many places according to their map (China, Kenya, Japan, England, Australia, and all over the US!) If that doesn't tell you something about how cool this place is, I don't know what will!

We've travelled to half of the states and this is my single most favorite spot. It was only $10 to explore an insane amount of random items from all over the world and different eras.

The cave is a short tour, nothing spectacular, but will cool you down in the summer heat. We've gone twice now and anytime I'm in Idaho, I'll go another time!

Upon arrival we were greeted by some peacocks and saw some emus! We then started in the natural history museum where there was every taxidermied creature imaginable!
