Shoshoko Falls is a waterfall in Teton County, Wyoming. Height has not been officially recorded. Access details and conditions have not yet been verified in person by Fallspots — the data on this page comes from OpenStreetMap and USGS GNIS.
Shoshoko Falls sits in Teton County, Wyoming. It drops along Taggart Creek. The falls are inside Grand Teton National Park, a US National Park. The base sits at roughly 9,069 feet of elevation. Drive time is about 12 minutes from Teton Village. No mapped trail runs within 200 meters — expect bushwhacking or off-trail navigation to reach the lip. No public parking is recorded within 2 km, so a longer approach is likely. This is one of the more frequently visited falls in the state by our popularity model. Source records come from OpenStreetMap and USGS GNIS.
Shoshoko Falls is a cascade located in Avalanche Canyon, Grand Teton National Park in the U.S. state of Wyoming. The cascade drops over 200 feet (61 m) and is intermittent, fed by runoff from snowmelt, and is near the outlet of Taggart Creek from Lake Taminah.
Is the water flowing right now?
Most waterfall sites don't tell you this. The waterfall itself is almost never gauged, but a USGS streamgage in the same watershed can tell you whether snowmelt has started, peaked, or run dry.
