PLEASE CHANGE ZIP TO:

83213

82312 is wrong and so the Map shows the entire United States, not very helpful.

Open ~1955-~1964? can anyone verify the exact dates?

More info and photos are always welcome.

Out by the airport appears to be the remains of a small drive-in. Although it appears less visible in older GE images.

The above address will map accurately to the location of the drive-in, which is visible on Google Earth.

Not sure if Google has changed the mapping but a more accurate address street number is 3156 US-93.

I like all the weird shaped areas(Possibly turf grass farms?) around this Drive-In theater that have that drive-in theater shape. They would be some huge drive-in theaters.
