I thought Idaho would be a good place to go to get away from those freaks. Now I find they're there.

Hmmmm! Going underground?

tom Hanks and his wife built their "gated" estate just outside of Sun Valley several years ago. The mansion was built with the backyard being in centuries old elk grazing lands.Ms Hanks noticed the beautiful beasts grazing in the morning dew laden grass and promptly contacted the Idaho Department of Natural Resources demanding that they "ask" the elk not to graze there any longer due to it being thier yard now....TRUE STORY!

Pattie was RIGHT again...
it is in motion--- albeit slow motion- buts its happening

Maybe she's a week or two early with her warnings?

Thanks for the INSTANT PIN!!

Why does a UK news site have to tell us?? This sucks.

That nothing to them. They can afford 1000 more homes.

The insurance companies who insure these mega-mansions are hiring their own crews to fight the fire, or at least spray down the homes with retardant foam.

WTH is going on in Idaho?

Sun Valley was created for the elites, they would take a train to the ski area in the old day's. The winter weather is fine, summer is never better, but the snow is unreliable.

The history of the “American Shangri-La,” as Sun Valley is sometimes referred, is not too different from the magical village of legend. It all began in 1935, when Count Felix Schaffgotsch, under the hire of Union Pacific Railroad chairman Averell Harriman, set out in search of the perfect spot for a grand American resort.

The count spent months searching the mountains of the west and surveying many areas that would later become famous resorts, but none of them met his strict criteria.

Feeling defeated and ready to abandon the search, the Count was preparing to wire Harriman the bad news when he heard locals talking about Ketchum, an old mining town in central Idaho. The Count postponed his return home and set out for the Ketchum area.

Upon reaching the Ketchum valley, Count Felix Schaffgotsch was overwhelmed by the area and wired his employer, saying: “This combines more delightful features than any place I have ever seen in Switzerland, Austria or the U.S. for a winter resort."

The Count’s enthusiasm spread to Harriman, who rushed to join the Count, and within days purchased 4,300 acres of what was soon to become Sun Valley.

Good. Let them burn. Idaho is THE white supremacist capital of amerikkka. Nature is just doing its natural selection thng ;-)

now that's called Californicating Idaho! my mom and dad, who have passed, had a place there, and that would have been the highlight of their day.

head north a little. no fires yet.



Thread: Sandpoint Idaho..

The real irony is that most of the elites....both Hollwoody and Political --- after telling us that we have to understand all the gang-angers and illegals and not profile them and that we have to pay for all sorts of benefits to surfers who do not want to work and anchor babies for Mexican and Chinese women......

Now leave broke-ass California in droves to get away from them and the high taxes they favored to pay for them.

From the local the TV news station!

HAILEY, Idaho -- A playground for some and home to many, the Wood River Valley is on edge as a massive fire burns dangerously close to homes, stretching fire crews and keeping officials hopping.
Right now, the Beaver Creek Fire has burned 145 square miles, and has forced 2,250 homes into a mandatory evacuation order (full list of areas below). Another 7700 homes are under what is known as pre-evacuation, giving them time to pack up essential belongings and get ready to go at a moment's notice if the fire grows closer. A total of nearly 10,000 homes are impacted by the massive fire that a public information officer termed "a beast."
