Take A Break from Spring Skiing

Just a little over an hour south of Sun Valley you will find one of Idaho’s spectacular attractions. Sometimes called the “Niagara of the West,” Shoshone Falls is 212 feet high—45 feet higher than Niagara Falls. This is THE best time of year to see the falls at their peak. Come early summer the flow will be greatly reduced as water from the Snake River will be diverted to irrigate some 2 million acres of farm and ranch lands in Southern Idaho.
