Impairments in order of decreasing river kilometers impaired include unknown causes (3 water body segments impaired; 408 km), sediments (10 segments; 321 km), pathogens (4 segments; 72 km), bacteria (4 segments; 51.2), and nutrients (2 segments; 34).

This work will benefit from use and operation of a state-of-the-art and locally supported continuous monitoring network that spans over 80 river kilometers and provides near-real time information on water quality. The very existence of this network enabled us to target the most impaired regions of the watershed and focus restoration efforts accordingly.

  • Oregon Trail-Bear Lake Scenic Byway
    OREGON TRAIL-BEAR LAKE SCENIC BYWAY Southeast Idaho, from the Utah border, through Soda Springs and west to McCammon, has been traversed by travelers since before recorded history. First by various tribes of natives on their way to “Po-Ha-Ba,” the healing waters of the hot springs at Lava Hot Springs, later by fur trappers, then emigrants on the Oregon Trail. The Union Pacific Railroad opened the area to freight and passengers circa 1880, McCammon was a stop on “The Gold Road,” the stagecoach and supply road from Salt Lake City to the gold mines in Montana. This guide starts at the Utah/Idaho border and will guide you to each site along the byway. If you are starting in McCammon follow it from the bottom up. 1. Bear Lake Portal and Overlook Often called The Caribbean of the Rockies for its intense turquoise blue water. Bear Lake is home to several species of fish found nowhere else in the world, such as the Bonneville Cisco. During pioneer times, Bear Lake was the site of Mountain Men Rendezvous' and fur trading. Year round recreation includes swimming, boating, fishing, hiking, biking, and snowmobiling. Just north of the Utah line on U.S. 89 at Milepost 2.2. 42° 1'59.23"N, 111°23'49.77"W 2. Gutzon Borglum Monument Gutzon Borglum was a prolific American sculptor best know for his presidents' sculptures on Mount Rushmore, South Dakota. Borglum was born in St. Charles, Idaho in 1867. His marble head sculpture of Abraham Lincoln is on display in the Capitol Rotunda.
