Whoah, Idaho!

Leaving Twin Falls, ID, we saw what a pretty little city it actually is. The northern limit of the city is defined by the Snake River Canyon. Now the Snake River is perhaps better known from that most breathtaking picture that Ansel Adams took againt the backdrop of the Grand Tetons in Wyoming but it has carved a pretty scenic canyon for itself through the southern Idaho countryside and you are treated to a lovely view of it as you leave Twin Falls.

Snake River Canyon, on the northern limits of Twin Falls, ID

We will revisit this river in a few days as we exit Yellowstone National Park and drive through Grand Teton National Park, and I will certainly make a stop at Ansel Adams' spot in the hopes of getting a picture even just half as good as his. If you still don't know which picture I'm talking about, get with the program please and educate yourself here:

View over Yellowstone National Park from our motel room.

For now though, it is north we head and the day was spent driving through Idaho towards the very charming town of West Yellowstone, Montana. The town sits right on the western boundary of Yellowstone National Park and the view over the park we have from our motel room is in fact a very juicy appetizer of where, tomorrow, we will boldly go where the Lewis and Clark expedition has boldly gone before.
