So on our way home from our trip to Salt Lake,
I talked Nathan into stopping by the Shoshone Falls
and Dierkes Lake.
Here is the sign as you enter Dierkes Lake : )
I took a picture of Nathan as we were standing overlooking
the lake....
Here is where they have sectioned off for
a swimming area. To the right (outside of the picture)
is a nice beach and an area where you can have
a picnic...
Then you drive down a little ways to the Shoshone Falls
We parked the car and decided to walk down to
the lookouts. Below is a picture as we were
walking down to where you can look straight
across at the Falls....
Isn't this just beautiful???
I love waterfalls!
I thought this was really neat how there
was a rainbow in the water...
This is the other side of the river (the falls are on the
left, outside of the picture)
Look at the mountains behind the falls, and how the river
just flows over all of those rocks.
They say that Shoshone Falls is known as
the Little Niagara Falls of the West,
although it is 50 feet higher than the Niagara
Falls in New York. I thought that was an
interesting fact.
And one last picture of the area as we are getting
in the car to continue our drive home.
