KOOTENAI CO., Idaho — Due to the unseasonably dry and warm weather, it’s not surprising if you’d want to be outside this weekend, enjoying the beauty that Kootenai County has to offer. However, the Sheriff’s Department would like to remind you to be safe on the water and in the backcountry this weekend.
It’s anticipated that there will be more boaters on the water and more people out enjoying the National Forest this upcoming weekend. As a result, the Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office has started its marine patrols on the waterways, and the Backcountry Deputies will be working in the National Forest.
