Driggs Geotourism Center

Idaho


This museum and information center packs a lot of knowledge into a small space. Exhibits on the culture, heritage, food, geology and recreational opportunities of the area inspire you to get out and experience them yourself. There are plentiful maps and brochures, and volunteers to answer question.

An attached climbing gym ($15; 3pm to 9pm Monday to Friday, 1pm to 8pm Saturday and Sunday) offers day passes.
