Facilities in Idaho

I was wondering if anyone had any information on bases or facilities in Idaho. I am aware of the INEEL, but are there any more?

I live in Idaho and the major AFB is Mt. Home AFB which at one time had (a long time ago ) ICBM's at the base I think there was three or four silos on the base. I went through a tour a while back and they had alot of info. on when they had them. For a while they had B-2's there and I have heard back in the 70's the SR-71 used the base as well. All they have now is some F-15's and F-16's. Although It is rumored that a wing of F-22's will be stationed there hope this gives you some info on base's in ID.

Acoustic Research Detachment

Bayview, Idaho is home to a small Navy base involved in research and development of methods to make ships and subs operate more quietly. There are approximately 100 employees and. contractors at the base, most commute from the surrounding areas.

Lake Pend Oreille (pronounced - Pond-o-ray) provides a deep (1150 ft), quiet body of water where a free-field ocean-like environment is available without the attendant problems and costs of open ocean operations. Unique experimental hardware and floating platforms have been developed to support a wide variety of R&D programs ranging from the measurement of flow induced boundary layer fluctuations on sonar domes to the calibrations of full-scale surface ship sonar transducers. Detachment personnel supporting the experiments form a versatile resident core of highly skilled labor. They work closely with transient project scientists, engineers and technicians from the Division and other Navy and private organizations, to plan and conduct operations on the lake.

However, I remember that there are supposed to be all these minutemen silos out in the Craters of the Moon National Park.
I couldn't find anything on that at the moment, not a lot of time for searching while I'm work, but here's some stuff:

About half way down the page are satellite photos of missile sites and whatnot in Idaho.

Look here too for other assorted errata:

In Burley there is a cave that supposed devil race lives according to native americans but if there such a thing it is probably related to the reptilians or draconians whatever they are.

There's something about those caves here:
