| I took a
Beamer's Jet Boat
tour up into Hells Canyon south of Lewiston. The deepest gorge in
North America is carved past 7,000 ft. mountains, in places, along the
Oregon Idaho border. This masterpiece of erosion is done by the
Snake
River. Rapids along the way are testimony to the work of the
river.
These tour boats, with 900 horsepower engines for "hydroplaning"
through
the rapids, are a great attraction. More images from canyon Hells Canyon Farther up canyon |
