Shoshone Falls in Twin Falls Idaho is often referred to as the “Niagara of the West.” The Falls drop 212 feet, a little further than Niagara Falls, and when the water flows at full capacity it is a stunning sight. The snowpack was light during the winter before this image was taken, and due to drought conditions and the need for water for irrigation, there was only a two-week period in May where the water was released over the falls at full capacity, to let salmon migrate upriver. This was announced ahead of time however, so visitors to the falls could plan accordingly. There are a few different lookout points to view the falls from, and one platform is quite a distance from the park, along the Canyon Rim Trail. It is one of my favorite spots, because I can follow a side trail along the top of the canyon rim to a much better viewpoint. On the morning that this image was taken, it was overcast and it soon became obvious that I would not see the sun peeking through the cloud cover. However, I was in place when the sunrise colors appeared through the clouds for about 10-15 minutes. The colors were deep pink and reds, and made for some magnificent shots.
