Once upon a time this building was a lodge for visitors coming to see the beautiful Mesa Falls. It has been restored to look much as it did back in the day but is now a visitor's center and store. I love the brown and white. Just to the west of it are a series of walkways and stairs taking you to vistas of Upper Mesa Falls.
It is a spectacular sight on Henry's Fork River in the southern half of Island Park.
It was a busy day in the park with the total solar eclipse to take place the following day. There was a a bit of a wait on the main road as cars had to leave before new parking spots were available.
The roar of the Falls was beautiful.

Another smaller drop off.

So much flowing water.
Sentinels down below keeping watch over those ripples.
A flowing river racing south to Little Mesa Falls through a beautiful pine forest.
My fellow explorers.
The west side of the river was beautiful and green like a rain forest from all the mist venturing across from the Falls. This was a lovely stop and view on our way to Ashton and the farm hills east.
