Big Wood crests in Hailey

Minor flooding as river reaches 6.2 ft.

The Big Wood River crested at 4,400 cubic feet per second Saturday morning and caused localized flooding, particularly in Hailey’s Della View Subdivision near Lawrence Heagle Park. The water rushed through the yard of this riverbank residence on War Eagle Drive—but, fortunately, most of the house had been raised in the event of flooding. Express photo by Willy Cook
