Evel Knievel Snake River Canyon jump 1974

[Reversoman]

Probably late to the party, but just recently bought Idaho.
The Along The Snake River Achievement got me thinking about Evel Knievel's 1974 failed steam powered SkyCycle jump of Snake River Canyon, and as a kid at the time thought it was the most amazing thing ever. So I first went googling, and then went trucking....

His jump was just to the East of Twin Falls, and all that remains now is the launch mound and some concrete blocks, and a noticeboard with info detailing the jump.
I found video that stuntman Eddie Braun has done the same jump in 2016 with a similar rocket designed by the son of Evel's engineer at the time as a tribute to his hero.

Anyhow, for those of you who have Idaho, head to the northeastern-most corner of Twin Falls, there at the right angle corner you'll see a gravel track with a tree/log across it and a "No Trucks allowed" sign. Push over the sign, and follow the track. I'll just say, and so does SCS, "Jump = 100% damage". No kidding! And thanks SCS for including this piece of history.
