About Caribou County Fair
The Caribou County Fair in Soda Springs celebrates a southeastern Idaho county where the world's largest captive geyser, phosphate mining, and the Oregon Trail's route through the Bear River watershed define a county of unusual natural and historical character — the Soda Springs Geyser erupts on schedule from a capped artesian well drilled in the 1930s.
What to Expect
Expect livestock shows, 4-H and FFA competitions, local food vendors, and a fair drawing from the Soda Springs community and the surrounding Bear River valley farming families.
Visitor Tips
Soda Springs' captive geyser erupts every hour (on a timer) and is a beloved local landmark. The Caribou-Targhee National Forest and the Bear Lake region to the south provide major recreation. The Oregon Trail's Lander Cutoff and Sublette Cutoff both passed through the county.
