Summer weather is finally kicking in, and many of us are ready to head for Idaho’s lakes, reservoirs and rivers to go boating, swimming, flat-water kayaking, whitewater rafting, etc.
If you go, please be aware that Idaho’s rivers are running at flood stage or just below flood stage after we experienced a late snowmelt in mid-June. Rivers are running high on the Coeur d’Alene River in Northern Idaho, the Clearwater and Lochsa rivers near Lewiston, the Snake River in Eastern Idaho, and the Payette River north of Boise, to name a few.
High water flows and cold water are a deadly combination that can cause hypothermia in a matter of seconds if a person falls out of the boat.
Refresh your water safety tips in this week’s Recreate Responsibly Idaho blog.
