      <abstract>This dataset contains the boundary of the Wood River Valley aquifer system as modified 
and expanded from that defined by Skinner and others (2007): It has been extended farther 
up several tributary canyons, extended up the Big Wood River to include a number of wells 
near the mouth of Baker Creek, expanded to include the western side of the Poverty Flat 
area, and extended slightly downstream of Stanton Crossing and Picabo. Although most 
of the boundary delineated by Skinner and others (2007) has been retained here, 
modifications were made in places to include information from additional wells that 
penetrated bedrock below alluvium.This dataset was created in support of the third phase 
of a continuing U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) study to assess the groundwater resources 
of the Wood River Valley, south-central Idaho. The first phase was documented in 
"Water-resource trends and comparisons between partial development and October 2006 
hydrologic conditions, Wood River Valley, south-central Idaho" (Skinner and others, 2007), 
and the second phase was documented in "Ground-water budgets for the Wood River Valley 
aquifer system, south-central Idaho"(Bartolino, 2009). The third phase is a description of the 
hydrogeologic framework of the Wood River Valley aquifer system. The Wood River Valley 
contains most of the population of Blaine County and the cities of Sun Valley, Ketchum, 
Hailey, and Bellevue. This mountain valley is underlain by the alluvial Wood River Valley 
aquifer system. The entire population of the area depends on groundwater for domestic 
supply and rapid population growth since the 1970s has caused concern about the long-term 
sustainability of the groundwater resource. References cited:Bartolino, J.R., 2009, Ground-water

      <purpose>This dataset was created to support hydrogeologic investigations in the Wood River Valley, Idaho. 
While the dataset was created in support of a hydrogeologic framework of the Wood River Valley 
aquifer system (SIR-2012-5053), the intended uses of this dataset include, but are not limited to, 
natural resource modeling, mapping, and visualization applications.</purpose>
