Visit Mesa Falls on the Caribou-Targhee National Forest in Idaho
Mesa Falls is located on the Caribou-Targhee National Forest in Idaho. The Mesa Falls Scenic Byway takes you to two of the last undisturbed waterfalls in the West. Upper and Lower Mesa Falls are the last major falls in Idaho that have not been used for irrigation or hydroelectric projects. They offer spectacular views in a beautiful forest setting. The upper waterfall at the Mesa Falls Visitor Center has been developed with paths and viewing areas and is easily accessible to all. The best view is from Grandview Campground and Overlook. The Mesa Falls Visitor Center has drinking water, restrooms, and gift shop. Visitors also enjoy the fur room in the visitor center and looking through the telescope on the visitor center porch to view the osprey nest.

4. Mount Vesuvius
Vesuvius is arguably the most famous volcano on Earth. It towers above Campania, Italy, and is just 5.6 miles east of Naples. It is only one volcano in the Campanian volcanic arc and is a volcanic cone. It is encircled partly by the rim of a caldera that was caused by the collapse of Mount Somma, which was a much larger and higher s...

These Mega-Colossal Eruptions Dwarf The Yellowstone Supervolcano
The Yellowstone Supervolcano erupted 3 times in the past 2.1 million years.
But even the last full scale eruption of the yellowstone supervolcano, the lava creek eruption about 640,000 years ago, is dwarfed in comparison to the top mega-colossal eruptions of supervolcanoes throughout our planet's history.
The yellowstone supervolcano ejected a magma volume of about 1,000 cubic kilometers.
But The toba eruption which is also known as the Toba event, about 74,000 years ago, ejected at least 2,800 cubic kilometers of magma. There are even larger Supervolcanoes than Toba.
La garita Caldera is one of them with about 5,000 cubic kilometers of ejected volcanic material.
And perhaps the biggest and most powerful super-eruption as a single volcano in Earth's history, is the Wah Wah Springs ...

#537 Upper and Lower Mesa Falls, Idaho
Lower Mesa Falls are viewed from a pull-out on the west side of the highway (Grandview Overlook), visible through gaps in the trees, 500 feet below. The falls consist of one main drop close to several smaller cascades and would look very spectacular close-up, from a path that descends the canyon walls to the river's edge, but this part of the gorge its privately owned so the path is out of bounds. Not so many people stop here, in contrast to the busy Upper Falls which has enough parking for several hundred vehicles. From a cluster of buildings including a gift shop and the historic Mesa Falls Lodge, a paved path descends to a viewpoint right on the brink of the 200 foot-wide falls, and another path follow the canyon up and down a short distance, giving unobscured views of the falls and the...

BREATHTAKING MESA FALLS in IDAHO, USA | Young's Journey
Breathtaking Mesa Falls of Idaho, USA. Upper Mesa Falls is a waterfall on the Henrys Fork in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest. Upstream from Lower Mesa Falls, it is roughly 16 miles (26 km) away from Ashton, Idaho. Upper Mesa Falls is roughly 114 feet (35 m) high and 200 feet (61 m) wide. Mesa Falls Tuff, which is the rock over which Upper Mesa Falls cascades, was formed 1.3 million years ago. A cycle of rhyolitic volcanism from the Henrys Fork caldera deposited a thick layer of rock and ash across the area. This layer compressed and hardened over time.
Between 200,000 and 600,000 years ago, the river eroded a wide canyon which was subsequently partly filled with basalt lava flows. The Henrys Fork of the Snake River then carved the channel through the basalt; which is the inner canyon ...

Yellowstone Supervolcano
Yellowstone National Park, supervolcano Wyoming, USA, past events and the physical geography explained. Including caldera, Mt Pinatubo, tectonic plates, hotspots and the consequences of a supervolcano erupting.
The Yellowstone Caldera is the volcanic caldera and supervolcano located in Yellowstone National Park in the United States, sometimes referred to as the Yellowstone Supervolcano. The caldera is located in the northwest corner of Wyoming, in which the vast majority of the park is contained. The major features of the caldera measure about 34 by 45 miles (55 by 72 km). The caldera formed during the last of three supereruptions over the past 2.1 million years. First came the Huckleberry Ridge eruption 2.1 million years ago, which created the Island Park Caldera and the Huckleberry Ridg...

Mesa Falls Scenic Byway
From Ashton, Idaho, the Mesa Falls Scenic Byway heads northeast into the lush landscape of the Targhee National Forest. It’s a loop that runs for nearly thirty impressive miles all the way to the Island Park area.This byway includes the popular Warm River campground and two of the most spectacular waterfalls in the West — lower and upper Mesa Falls. At the upper falls you can stop at the historic Big Falls interpretive center to learn about the geology and history of the area.

Here, you’ll find some of the most cataclysmic (cat-a-clizmic) and destructive volcanic eruptions known to humankind, as well as learn a bit about their history and just what it was that made them so powerful. We now present to you CRAZIEST Volcanic Events in History.

4. Mount Vesuvius
Vesuvius is arguably the most famous volcano on Earth. It towers above Campania, Italy, and is just 5.6 miles east of Naples. It is only one volcano in the Campanian volcanic arc and is a volcanic cone. It is encircled partly by the rim of a caldera that was caused by the collapse of Mount Somma, which was a much larger and higher structure. Vesuvius grew out of Mount Somma, and it has erupted many, many times in ancient history and in recent times, although one of those eruptions stands out among the rest. The eruption in AD 79 is probably the most famous and devastating eruptions to occur in human history; gases, ash, and stones were blown out of the volcano to a height of 21 miles and produced around 100,000 times as much thermal energy as the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Pyroclastic surges overtook and buried the city of Hercu-laneum in 75 feet of tephra, and Pompeii was buried under almost 39 feet. More than 1,000 people lost their lives in the eruption, and roughly 1,044 casts were made from impressions of bodies found in ash deposits and pyroclastic surge deposits in PompAY and the surrounding area by 2004. Three hundred thirty-two have been found in Hercu-laneum.
3. Thera
This eruption is called many things: the Minoan eruption of Thera, Thera eruption, Late Bronze Age eruption, and Santorini eruption. This major event is thought to have had a Volcanic Explosivity Index of either 6 or 7, and it’s believed to have happened sometime between 1642 and 1540 B.C. It was a massive eruption that completely devastated the island then known as Thera, which is now called Santorini. In 2006, it was found that the volume of materials released from the volcano, its dense-rock equivalent, was about 24 cubic miles. That means that it kicked out about four times more material than Krakatoa! On Santorini, there is a layer of white tephra that measures 200 feet thick, and in some places, you can see the exact level of the ground before Thera erupted. This eruption was an Ultra Plinian (PLEE-NIAN) (Plinian eruptions are eruptions similar to Vesuvius), and the column of debris breached the stratosphere when it shot between 19 and 22 miles into the sky. It also spawned tsunami waves that built to staggering heights: between 115 and 492 feet tall.
2. Yellowstone
We’ve all heard of Yellowstone, and most of us know that it’s been a hotspot (literally) for volcanic activity for a very long time. You’ve also probably been told that if the volcanism in the area were to graduate into another full-blown eruption, it would be cataclysmic. But just how bad were eruptions here in the past? Well, it last had a full-blown eruption some 640,000 years ago, which ejected an enormous 250 cubic miles worth of material into the atmosphere, but it wasn’t the first of its kind. Yellowstone also erupted 2.1 million years ago, and that was called the Huckleberry Ridge eruption, which formed the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff and the 50 X 40 mile Island Park Caldera. It erupted again 1.3 million years ago in what was called the Mesa Falls eruption, which formed the Mesa Falls Tuff and the 18 X 23 mile Henry’s Fork Caldera. The massive eruption 640,000 years past was named the Lava Creek eruption, and if you’re getting the pattern, you’ll know it created the Lava Creek Tuff and left behind the Yellowstone Caldera, which measures 34 X 45 miles. The eruption itself was roughly one-thousand times more powerful than Mount St. Helens, and it’s believed it contributed to the changing of world weather patterns and extinctions.

The Yellowstone Supervolcano erupted 3 times in the past 2.1 million years.
But even the last full scale eruption of the yellowstone supervolcano, the lava creek eruption about 640,000 years ago, is dwarfed in comparison to the top mega-colossal eruptions of supervolcanoes throughout our planet's history.
The yellowstone supervolcano ejected a magma volume of about 1,000 cubic kilometers.
But The toba eruption which is also known as the Toba event, about 74,000 years ago, ejected at least 2,800 cubic kilometers of magma. There are even larger Supervolcanoes than Toba.
La garita Caldera is one of them with about 5,000 cubic kilometers of ejected volcanic material.
And perhaps the biggest and most powerful super-eruption as a single volcano in Earth's history, is the Wah Wah Springs eruption with about 5,900 cubic kilometers of ejected magma.

And perhaps the biggest and most powerful super-eruption as a single volcano in Earth's history, is the Wah Wah Springs eruption with about 5,900 cubic kilometers of ejected magma.

Lower Mesa Falls are viewed from a pull-out on the west side of the highway (Grandview Overlook), visible through gaps in the trees, 500 feet below. The falls consist of one main drop close to several smaller cascades and would look very spectacular close-up, from a path that descends the canyon walls to the river's edge, but this part of the gorge its privately owned so the path is out of bounds. Not so many people stop here, in contrast to the busy Upper Falls which has enough parking for several hundred vehicles. From a cluster of buildings including a gift shop and the historic Mesa Falls Lodge, a paved path descends to a viewpoint right on the brink of the 200 foot-wide falls, and another path follow the canyon up and down a short distance, giving unobscured views of the falls and the fast-flowing river below. Entrance to the viewpoint is $5 per vehicle.
For Boondocking we carry with us :
65 Gallons of water in our Aqua Bladder
An additional 25 gallons in Blue water containers
2 Generators
A months Supply of food
8gallons of gas for the generators
Plus 40 gallons or so of fuel for the truck.
And protection from Bears if needed. Bear Spray will do it.
Camera Gear
I use my LG V40 Thin Q Cellphone most of the time.

Breathtaking Mesa Falls of Idaho, USA. Upper Mesa Falls is a waterfall on the Henrys Fork in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest. Upstream from Lower Mesa Falls, it is roughly 16 miles (26 km) away from Ashton, Idaho. Upper Mesa Falls is roughly 114 feet (35 m) high and 200 feet (61 m) wide. Mesa Falls Tuff, which is the rock over which Upper Mesa Falls cascades, was formed 1.3 million years ago. A cycle of rhyolitic volcanism from the Henrys Fork caldera deposited a thick layer of rock and ash across the area. This layer compressed and hardened over time.
Between 200,000 and 600,000 years ago, the river eroded a wide canyon which was subsequently partly filled with basalt lava flows. The Henrys Fork of the Snake River then carved the channel through the basalt; which is the inner canyon seen today.(source: wikipedia)

Yellowstone National Park, supervolcano Wyoming, USA, past events and the physical geography explained. Including caldera, Mt Pinatubo, tectonic plates, hotspots and the consequences of a supervolcano erupting.
The Yellowstone Caldera is the volcanic caldera and supervolcano located in Yellowstone National Park in the United States, sometimes referred to as the Yellowstone Supervolcano. The caldera is located in the northwest corner of Wyoming, in which the vast majority of the park is contained. The major features of the caldera measure about 34 by 45 miles (55 by 72 km). The caldera formed during the last of three supereruptions over the past 2.1 million years. First came the Huckleberry Ridge eruption 2.1 million years ago, which created the Island Park Caldera and the Huckleberry Ridge Tuff. Next came the Mesa Falls eruption 1.3 million years ago, which created the Henry's Fork Caldera and the Mesa Falls Tuff. Finally came the Lava Creek eruption 640,000 years ago, which created the Yellowstone Caldera and the Lava Creek Tuff.
The last full-scale eruption of the Yellowstone Supervolcano, the Lava Creek eruption which happened nearly 640,000 years ago, ejected approximately 240 cubic miles (1,000 km3) of rock, dust and volcanic ash into the sky.
Geologists are closely monitoring the rise and fall of the Yellowstone Plateau, which measures on average 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) yearly, as an indication of changes in magma chamber pressure.
The upward movement of the Yellowstone caldera floor between 2004 and 2008 — almost 3 inches (7.6 cm) each year — was more than three times greater than ever observed since such measurements began in 1923. From mid-summer 2004 through mid-summer 2008, the land surface within the caldera moved upward as much as 8 inches (20 cm) at the White Lake GPS station. By the end of 2009, the uplift had slowed significantly and appeared to have stopped. In January 2010, the USGS stated that "uplift of the Yellowstone Caldera has slowed significantly" and that uplift continues but at a slower pace. The U.S. Geological Survey, University of Utah and National Park Service scientists with the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory maintain that they "see no evidence that another such cataclysmic eruption will occur at Yellowstone in the foreseeable future. Recurrence intervals of these events are neither regular nor predictable." This conclusion was reiterated in December 2013 in the aftermath of the publication of a study by University of Utah scientists finding that the "size of the magma body beneath Yellowstone is significantly larger than had been thought." The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory issued a statement on its website stating,
" Although fascinating, the new findings do not imply increased geologic hazards at Yellowstone, and certainly do not increase the chances of a 'supereruption' in the near future. Contrary to some media reports, Yellowstone is not 'overdue' for a supereruption. "
Other media reports were more hyperbolic in their coverage.
A study published in GSA Today identified three fault zones that future eruptions are most likely to be centered on. Two of those areas are associated with lava flows aged 174,000--70,000 years, and the third area is a focus of present-day seismicity.
