Twin Falls, Idaho 🏞️ – Gateway to Yellowstone & Sun Valley

Located along the scenic route from Northern California to Yellowstone or the famous Sun Valley ski resort, Twin Falls is a charming small city of just 50,000 people. As the name suggests, it’s famous for its waterfalls — including the stunning Shoshone Falls, often called the “Niagara of the West.” 🌊 At 300 meters wide and 65 meters tall, it’s actually 14 meters higher than Niagara Falls! One of the city’s most thrilling landmarks is the I.B. Perrine Bridge 🏗️— the 8th highest bridge in the U.S. and a world-famous base jumping site. Every year, adrenaline seekers from around the globe flock here to leap from the bridge, which spans 457 meters and stands 148 meters above the Snake River. The jump lasts about 30 seconds, but the climb back up takes nearly 40 minutes! 😮 In 2006, a Utah man named Daniel Schilling set a world record here by jumping 201 times in 24 hours. 🪂🏆 When it comes to food, Twin Falls has two main roads where all the action is: Blue Lakes Blvd and Pole Line Road.
