Radio Link to Space
by Claire McLeanA part of the original Teacher in Space program, Idaho educator Barbara Morgan ended up training for ten years before taking her place on board an active space shuttle mission.

Driggs—Spotlight City
by Lynna HowardNestled beneath the Grand Tetons is Driggs, the largest town in Idaho’s beautiful Teton Valley. Home to about eighteen hundred people and to some of the most breathtaking scenery in the world, Driggs is growing by leaps and bounds. Houses and businesses are not the only things under construction—new cultural activities spring up seemingly overnight.

by Dale ToweillWhen the habitat for mountain goats in one area becomes too crowded, one of the best methods for stabilizing the population is to transplant some of the goats to vacant habitat elsewhere. In this instance, mountain goats, captured in Utah, are now calling the mountains around Salmon their new home.
