I tried to do a little research on this place, but Google Maps says it is permanently closed. I’m not sure when that happened. The only thing I could find was that this place was a filming location in the 1997 movie called “Dante’s Place”.
Today’s photo comes from the aforementioned driving break on I-84 through southern Idaho a few weeks ago. You can’t really tell from the photo, since there aren’t any people in it, but Shoshone Falls actually is a bigger drop than Niagara Falls.
I’ve gone by the Shoshone Falls turnoff on I-84 several times in my life, but this week was the first time I actually took the time to visit the falls. On the way there, I parked by the Perrine Memorial Bridge to take the above photo.
Should you ever find yourself on Highway 90 in the Idaho Panhandle, get off the freeway and take a look at this town. Every building in downtown Wallace is on the National Register of Historic Places–every one! I don’t think any other place can say the same. The on and off-ramps to Wallace appear to be some sort of time portals.
