The Teton Dam is a wondrous man-made entity, providing boundless amounts of water to the farmers and cheap hydro-electric power to us all.
Oh wait, that was the intent back in 1976, until it fell apart as it was almost full…
Wilford, Sugar City, Salem, Hibbard and Rexburg were hit with 2,000,000 cubic feet of water per second, spilling from what used to be the Teton Dam.
More than 200 families were left homeless, with an estimated $400 million, to one billion dollars, in property damage.
