Shoshone Falls and Twin Falls

Picture

The city of Twin Falls has two beautiful waterfalls along the within a few miles of it.  The falls are natural falls of the Snake River and have become part of a hydro-electric project.  Shoshone falls is a beautiful park about 3 miles outside the city.  It is a very impressive set of falls and has several mini -alls along the road leading to it.

I enjoyed Shoshone Falls very much!

Twin Falls

Twin Falls was once a double cascade pouring over these rocks.  The hydroelectric project caused one of the cascades to stop and so there is now only a single waterfall at Twin Falls.

The Snake River Canyon and the falls were really something to see!
I couldn't get enough of the astounding size of that canyon
and the power of the water that carved it!  Wow!!!
