The basic gist is it’s a water rights argument in the eastern part of the state. Idaho water rights are given by order of time (ie who gets the water rights first), not based on where the water physically runs. So some farmers downstream got water rights before others who are upstream, so that’s been causing problems with who can use the water.
Sandy Point was always our favorite. That large pond is not all that deep either maybe 4ft? And yes, we do remember that fountain being cold!
Yeah that’s right. It’s only about 4-5 ft deep in the middle. Really kid friendly!
A lot of chatter about water issues in Boise/ID, what's the real story?
