Description: Ariolimax columbianus, more commonly referred to as the Banana Slug. Welcome to my Pacific Northwest! These critters, documented in sizes up to 25 cm in length, are part of the thrill guests can look forward to experiencing when visiting our area. But, if you'd like more, if you'd enjoy the opportunity to fill your day with visions of the fantastical made real, whole-heartedly, the Rice Northwest Museum of Rocks and Minerals is 100% a destination the whole family can enjoy. From novice to advanced enthusiast, your day will be one of thrilling discovery. The slugs are out there, but if you'd like a bigger thrill, come inside, the minerals are awaiting your gasps of amazement and pleasure! Take care everyone and sincerely, come visit the Rice! All the very best, John Cornish
