Soggy conditions affecting roads
March 15, 2017
It might not appear too impressive, but this mudslide that came down across Highway 95 at about 5 p.m. today just south of Mirror Lake Golf Course shut down traffic in both directions for nearly an hour.

Boundary County Public Information

Boundary County Road and Bridge Superintendent Clint Kimball advised they are experiencing drainage issues throughout the County consisting mostly of water out of ditches. There also have been some minor landslides that have been cleared and the roads re-opened.

Do not drive into standing water on the roads, the depth is difficult to determine. If you must proceed, drive slowly and stay in the shallow water if possible.

Do not try to cross a mudslide on the road, you may become stuck placing you within the landslide.

If you have a mud slide or standing water to report, please call Boundary County Road and Bridge (208) 267-3838.
