Saturday Perrine Bridge, Twin Falls Idaho

We left Craters of the Moon and headed south west to Twin Falls, Idaho as Laurie had heard about the Perrine Bridge over the Snake River.  This is just a hop, skip and a jump away from where Evil Kneivel tried unsuccessfully to rocket/motorcycle jump the snake river.  The bridge is very high (550') above the river, and there are pathways and view points on either side, and you are permitted to walk across (protected walkways) or....jump!  People were doing BASE jumping off the middle of the bridge, and parachuting down to the bottom.  In fact, as we walked across, one woman did jump, and landed in the river - all the others had maneuvered their landing to a wide strip of land along the side.
On the other side of the bridge, deep in the gorge was a beautiful golf course.
