MagicValley.com S HOSHONE M URDER P LOT A Wal-Mart BOYS TO STAY JAILED welcome T.F. Supercenter FOR SAFETY CONCERNS opens its doors By Nichole Carnell Times-News writer

After nearly four years of planning and building, an assortment of Twin Falls Area Chamber of Commerce mem- bers, cheerleaders, veterans, U.S. Army Reserve members, and even Miss Magic Valley welcomed the new Wal-Mart to Twin Falls Wednesday morning. A presentation of colors by the Army Reserves, a rendition of the national anthem by Twin Falls vocalist Burt Huish, followed by a Wal-Mart- inspired routine by Planet Cheer kept a crowd of more than 100 who waited outside the store for more than 30 min- utes during the 7:30 a.m. ceremony.

Flood-control releases from farther up the Snake River should add at least 2,000 or 3,000 cubic feet per second to the water rushing over the falls, the company estimates. Recent rains have slightly blunted irrigation demand, at the same time that provisional data from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation showed that all major upper Snake River reservoirs were near or at capacity on Wednesday. The water had already started to arrive on Wednesday, with at least 3,500 cfs passing over Milner Dam. Idaho Power expects flows could approach 10,000 cfs by this weekend; that’s 74,800 gal- lons every second. The falls reached 17,000 cfs earlier this year.

By Karla Barnes Times-News correspondent

JACKSON HOLE, Wyo. — For all of you cow- boys and cowgirls out there yearning for the spir- it of the Old West, your dream destination might lie just a little more than four hours away. Jackson Hole,Wyo.,is one of the premier west- ern towns in the U.S.and is revered the world over for its beauty, colorful history and cowboy-style and lore. Some of the earliest history recorded in Jackson Hole tells about how the town was named after early fur trader Davey Jackson. He and his popu- lar friends, William Sublette and Jedediah Smith, were mountain men who settled in the valley in the early 1800s. Legend has it that Jackson liked to “hole up” and trap in the valley.After all, it was some of the best beaver and other fur-bearing animal trapping in the region. It wasn’t long before Sublette dubbed the area Jackson’s Hole. Since the early fur-trapping days, Jackson Hole has been a desirable destination in the West. The Homestead Act of 1862 brought in settlers eager to acquire land. Though the land was difficult to cultivate and the winters were wicked, many stayed and the popularity of Jackson Hole increased.

The hillside was black ground just 20 months ago, nearly every living plant on it burnt in the Castle Rock Fire that swept through Adams Gulch and threatened the Ketchum and Sun Valley ski areas. Now, the area was solid with 3-foot-tall aspen Mike Kearney, a Twin Falls chemist, sniffs a sassafras plant for its root shoots, accented with sticky beer scent. Kearney has taken all the wildflower walks the Sawtooth geranium, cinquefoil and Botanical Garden has offered this year in a new quest to learn the yellow goosefoot violets. names of the area’s wildflowers.
