My Connection to the Boise Watershed....

Submitted by Ashlee Kolar on Mon, 2017-07-10 00:00

Most years I am more connected to it than this one.  I've been very busy with my family and the water levels have been so high that I haven't gotten the chance to enjoy the opportunities the watershed offers.  Typically I fly fish, float the Payette River, swim, and even camp around as many water sources as I can find.  This year I have also not planted a garden, which typically requires a strong connection to the use of the watershed (especially with the hot weather) - although, my daughter has used her fair share with the sprinkler under our trampoline.

I too have not had the opportunity to enjoy the water as much as I typically do due to the high water levels. I am hopeing to float the river at least once this season before it starts getting cold and I can not take advantage of it. I am sorry you have not had the chance to get your garden growing this year, that was on my list too but never got around to it.
