Welcome to Idaho Story Time.
Today’s story is about the Shoshone Falls.
|
 |



Have you heard of the ‘Niagara of the West’?
Shoshone Fall just outside of Twin Falls Idaho is a true wonder to behold. It is larger then Niagara falls. The best time to visit the falls is in the spring.
As an added bonus this week I have added a very short video of Shoshone Falls and some pictures.
The video was taken by J. Colburn
