The Twin Falls graticule is at latitude 42, longitude -114. It includes a number of small communities, including (but not limited to) Twin Falls, Jerome, Wendell, Gooding, Shoshone, Buhl, Filer, and Kimberly.

Accessibility varies, but as the south half of the graticule is far removed from major roadways and the southeastern quadrant of the graticule is mountainous and challenging even for appropriately-equipped vehicles, many geohashes may require relocation to a nearby town - or even a nearby camping facility, if there is one.
