It's truly beautiful! It's perfect for fishing, especially off the Homedale bridge. The only things are that there's sometimes water snakes and the water isn't suitable for swimming.
What a beautiful place! We took kayaks on the calm part of the river. Some of the guys fished and some of us just floated and paddled. It was the last week of September and the aspen leaves were bright yellow. Saw a bald eagle perched next to the river and it didn’t fly off when we paddled close to take a look.
These images are from a variety of places from the southeastern and southwestern part of the state of the Snake River.
I’m not sure where this tag originated so I thought I’d share some of the beautiful photos I’ve takes over the last six months of the Snake River and places along the Snake.
Love Going to the Snake River for a Peaceful Walk and Love the Scenery they keep updating to make the time there Enjoyable! Lots to look at with the flowers, waterfall, walkways, and the LDS Temple in the background. Close to great food places in walking distance.
Our first look at the Snake River, was where it flows out from the Palisades Reservoir. Its 1,078-miles long and begins somewhere in Wyoming south of Yellowstone Lake. It has the deepest gorge in North America, called Hells Canyon. We saw it again at Taco Hole, a kayaker’s drop-in place, and then just past the bend where Ansel Adam’s took his historic photo in 1942.
Driving along it was a pleasure.
The river is swift and cold; swimming anywhere in is not recommended. We are not kayakers, so we let someone else do the river running.
But it was when we took a cruise on it and got down at the water’s level, we really learned about it.
