Description
If your ever in the Snake River Valley, and traveling by Twin Falls Idaho. You owe it to yourself to stop in and see the "Niagara Of The West" :-)
Shoshone Falls is an amazing place to visit and you wont' be sorry you did! :-)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Shoshone Falls (/ʃoʊˈʃoʊn/) is a waterfall on the Snake River in southern Idaho, located approximately five miles (8 km) east of the city of Twin Falls. Sometimes called the "Niagara of the West," Shoshone Falls is 212 feet (65 m) high�45 feet (14 m) higher than Niagara Falls�and flows over a rim 1,000 feet (300 m) wide.
A park overlooking the waterfall is owned and operated by the City of Twin Falls. Shoshone Falls is best viewed in the spring, as diversion of the Snake River for irrigation and hydroelectricity generation often significantly diminishes water levels in the late summer and fall.
Daredevil Evel Knievel attempted to jump the Snake River Canyon in 1974; the launch site for his Skycycle X-2 is less than two miles (3 km) west of the falls, on the south rim of the canyon (42.597�N 114.423�W).
