The "Blue Hole" in Rigby, ID. Best rope swing around. This is me halfway through a backflip.
The Darby Wind Caves, a must see if you are ever near Driggs, ID. Its a really neat cave with a waterfall coming out of it. Its only 5 miles round trip, pretty accessible for just about anyone.
Inside the cave (from left to right): Jerika Terry, Philip Stewart (not sure why his sunglasses are on, there wasn't an ounce of light), Jarom Bridges, and Nate Llewellyn.
Me and Becca Pike on our way out of the cave, at the mouth of the waterfall (it is a spring that comes out at the mouth of the cave).
Someone got this candid shot of Becca and I eating lunch at the base of the waterfall.
We visited Jackson for an evening.
Our campsite. The highlight (for me, others may have their own opinion) was reading "The Cremation of Sam McGee".
Saturday morning we woke up to blue skies, but they didn't last long. Just as we finished cooking breakfast a dark thunderstorm rolled in. Within minutes lightning was cracking overhead (directly overhead once, which got our hearts beating) and the rain was pouring. So, we quickly threw everything into cars, except breakfast, which ended up in the bear box. So we took turns putting our breakfast burritos together under the tarp, then getting in the cars to eat.
Due to the inclement weather, we decided to bag our Table Rock hike. We went west and found a great hike to a bridge in the middle of nowhere. In this picture you can see the storm we escaped, and the beautiful alternative we enjoyed.
I know there are a lot of these, but it was really incredibly beautiful.
After the hike to the bridge, we had some milkshakes at one of my favorite places, the Frostop, in Ashton.
That evening we headed back to Rexburg and showered and relaxed. Some of our company had never been to Rexburg, so we decided to treat them to the well known "Taco Truck", which has been upgraded to a bus since I left Idaho.
Sunday we attended a student ward on BYU-Idaho's campus. As we were about to go we decided we needed to grab a bite to eat first, and it turned into some kind of tailgate party. We had some strange looks but it was fun.

Looks like fun! I love the Tetons, so gorgeous!
I have been searching for help finding the rope swing you are talking about here. Your blog came up on a google search. Would you be able to help me understand at all where it is?
