DAY 15 was slated as a slow-down day. Since we were in Twin Falls in the morning, we decided to stick around a bit to check out the BASE jumpers. We didn’t know how early they start, so we chose to check out Shoshone Falls a few miles away. These falls were highly recommended to me by a former Twin Falls resident who works at NVCC. Although we have seen many falls this trip, these were different that all the others we had seen. Beautiful and powerful, they are part of hydroelectric power plant. I didn’t get all the details on this, but impressive all the same.
After an hour or so at the falls, we made our way back to the bridge. We didn’t have to wait too long to witness the jumps. FYI, the Perrine Bridge is the only place in the United States that this is legal. Pretty exciting to watch, don’t know if I would do it. I think jumping out of a plane would give a longer thrill.
Well before noon we were on our way to our hotel in Montana. This gave us a chance to get laundry done, some of this and that taken care of, and hopefully a solid night sleep. I’ll let you know with the next post.
