Misty Valley - Madison County, Idaho
Misty Valley is located on the Henry's Fork of the Snake River, just outside Rexburg. The property consists of approximately 257 acres and will be developed into a master planned community of single family lots averaging over ½ acre each. Situated in a unique position with wetlands adjacent to the river wrapping around the north western tip of the property to provide over 80 acres of parkland.
Misty Valley borders the Henry?s Fork River, which is a tributary of the Snake River in southeastern Idaho. The Island Park Reservoir is used for irrigation in the Snake River Plain and its drainage provides one of the most important rainbow trout fisheries in Idaho, in terms of habitat, fish populations, and angler access. The Henry?s Fork has long been noted for its superb fishing, especially its dry fly fishing. The area is home to prolific aquatic insect hatches that draws fly fishers from around the world to test their skills against some of the most beautiful rainbow trout around.
The river flows south through a high plateau in northern Fremont County, through the Caribou-Targhee National Forest, and passes through Island Park Reservoir. Emerging from Island Park Reservoir, the river flows through a canyon that then opens up into a broad, flat meadow located in the Island Park Caldera in central Fremont County. The river flows slowly past the town of Island Park and then descends swiftly as it approaches the wall of the caldera, flowing over both Upper Mesa and Lower Mesa Falls, and emerges from the mountains onto the Snake River Plain near Ashton. It flows southwest across the plain, past St. Anthony, splitting into multiple channels into a broad inland delta north of Rexburg.
