Craters of the Moon

50 years ago in July of 1969, Aldrin and Armstrong became the first men to walk on the moon.

It seems like we write about how great Idaho is at least once every week. There truly is so much beauty and adventure to take in.

It's National Park Week, and it's a good time for a road trip.

Ten bucks to see a lava flow?

The travel piece, written last month by staffer Andreas Wass, compares the preserve to visiting a "galaxy far, far away."

I’ve visited the park and not even so much felt a tremble beneath my toes.

Is Craters as good of a tourist spot as the Perrine Bridge, Redfish Lake, or Box Canyon? Not even close. But is it the worst in the state?

The actors (all but one) were people recruited off the street.

The Sawtooth Botanical Garden and Idaho Native Plant Society will host a wildflower walk on Saturday at Craters of the Moon.

One of the preserve's most popular routes offering several miles of trails that weave under and above volcanic scenery has yet to open for these winter activities.

It's easy to forget how exotic our landscape is in Southern Idaho. But, one photographer just shared a new video reminding us about one very unique thing you can do here that you can't easily do hardly anywhere else.

Craters of the Moon is starting to get a lot of attention for a brand new reason. It has just been named the best place in Idaho to view the night sky. Even better, there are chances for you to experience it yourself.
