The Camas Prairie

At an elevation of around 5000 feet, the Camas Prairie located in south central Idaho, puts on a colorful show in late May and early June as Camas Lilies carpet the land in a sea of blue and purple. The Nez Pierce Indians once harvested the Camas root for medicinal purposes and for a key ingredient in making bread. The Camas Prairie is also an important wetland zone for migratory birds.

Shoshone Falls

                              The Snake River roars over Shoshone Falls


At a height of 212 feet, Shoshone Falls which is located near the town of Twin Falls, Idaho is actually higher than Niagara Falls, hence the nickname the "Niagara of the West."
Because of it's great height, Shoshone Falls is the terminus that any fish such as sturgeon, salmon or steelhead can move upstream. This year because of heavy snow and an extremely wet spring, Shoshone Falls has been flowing at record levels and continues to provide a spectacular sight.
