SHELLEY — It seemed an incongruous scene: Two men stepped out of a pickup parked next to a huge, flat Shelley farm field dressed in ski jackets, pants and ski boots. They pulled packs and downhill skis from the vehicle and walked out into the field. They were a long way from the nearest ski resort. But with the help of large kites and a stiff Idaho wind, the pair were soon zipping back and forth across the snow-covered field at speeds usually seen at downhill resorts. “That field over there looks better, but this is the field we have permission on,” said longtime snow kiter Gerald Staker of Idaho Falls. He and friend Aaron John were literally flying at times across the field.
