Twin Falls
Doubled cascade name
Twin Falls is a city in south-central Idaho, named for a waterfall on the Snake River.
The falls themselves, now partially diverted for hydroelectric power, drop in two streams over a basalt cliff.
The city serves as a regional hub for agriculture and food processing in the Magic Valley.
We stopped in Twin Falls on our way to Yellowstone.
