Mesa Falls, ID

Pouring through the Henry Fork Caldera, which is part of the greater Island Park Caldera, the geology of the area dates back more than 1.3 million years when one of seven known supervolcanos erupted starting the creation of the Yellowstone Caldera. Needless to say, Mesa Falls is rich in history. Given the geology and park and huck nature of the falls it’s no wonder that so many people stop by the magnificent waterfall to take a quick look or partake in recreational activities. A couple weeks ago Dan McCain took a trip back to is home state of Montana and took a look at Mesa.

Exploring the Lava Tubes

The Little White Salmon has always had a mysterious flow pattern during the winter months as the headwaters fill up and explode into the river. The lava flows in the headwaters have a lot to do with this pattern. Here is a short video from down in the hole.

Rock Creek, Money Drop changes..

January 11th, 2009

A low key mission to Bridal Veil started off the day and the boys were still hungry so we went to Rock Creek. Jake Sanders decided to give it a go and shortly after, Tony S and Nate Herbeck followed. It turned out to be a huge weekend in the gorge. Since most runs are full of wood right now and the water is here, the paddlers have been in search of the big drops.

about 35feet.

A huge land slide that keeps sliding in from high above this falls on creek left has blocked the pool, and a lot of the flow, and made the waterfall a little shorter.
