Washington residents on the river

| April 20, 2020 1:50 PM

My wife and I were just up the river road, going north of Kingston, where we saw way too many Washington campers up Bumble Bee, up as far as 4.5 miles and up the Old River Road there was a whole lot more from Washington.

We don’t mind campers and ATV’s and UTV’s also, so long as they are from our state of Idaho. Our personal opinion that those that wish to come to our state for camping and so forth should just stay home and abide by their own state Governor’s order to stay home and “self quarantine.”

We don’t want and don’t need those from other states to bring the coronavirus to Idaho and to definitely not bring it to us here in the Silver Valley. There are a lot of us here in the valley that feel this way at this time of this self quarantine.
