Upper Mesa Falls, aka Big Falls, is a waterfall dropping about 114 ft on the Henrys Fork of the Snake River. The power of the water falling here is sufficient enough that in the past this site belonged to a power company. The waterfall is 300 ft. wide.
The area was purchased by Targhee National Forest and developed into a scenic attraction with a walking path leading to several viewpoints.
