Rocky Mountain Adventure
The Museum of Idaho has partnered with ISU and the Sawtooth Science Institute to offer
exciting continuing education courses for educators and interested community members.

What to expect: Join us for any or all of six learning opportunities in Idaho's spectacular and unique natural environment. All courses include chances to observe and study through hands-on field activities that teachers can adapt to any grade level. An interdisciplinary approach weaves English, math, history, and art into the science-based activities. We will be hiking up to two miles over moderate terrain each day, so participants should be moderately fit.
