Near the city of Evel Knievel's unsuccessful attempt to jump the Snake River Canyon in a rocket cycle is the Perrine Bridge, which rises 486 feet above the river and reaches 1500 feet across the canyon.

The Buzz Langdon Visitor Information Center, located at the southwest corner of the bridge, offers information, displays, souveniers, brochures, and a telescopic view of the canyon. It is open daily 8:00 to 8:00 from mid-March to mid-October.

To reach the bridge from Interstate 84, take Exit 173.
