Thursday August 15 Zip the Snake in Twin Falls, Idaho

I arrived in Twin Falls on Wednesday and spent the night.

At about 9:30 A.M. on Thursday, I drove to Zip the Snake. I was surprised when I turned on Canyon Road, it right off the main road, just a little ways down I saw this huge canyon. I got really excited because I knew this was going to be awesome.

I was able to get on a tour leaving shortly. I was not disappointed...the views were magnificent. I saw the canyon, waterfalls, the Snake River, the Prine Bridge, Canyon Springs Golf Course and lots more. Jody, one of the owners took some great photos (see below).

Speeds up to 50 mph.

My awesome guides were Zach, Chris and Rachel!

It was a great group to zip with...four other women!

I will add more history and geology later. Jody was great at informing us on these subjects. I love this stuff!

Wednesday August 14 ZipRider at Miller Motor Sports Park in Toelle, Utah

I drove to Miller Motor Sports Park in the afternoon and was able to ride their ZipRider. You start low and it quickly zips you backwards until you are at a height of 150 ft. Then, at 30 miles an hour you are zipped forward. From the top you can see the Great Salt Lake with the mountains in the background! Great view.
