Secrets of groundwater: Thousand Springs State Park and the amazing Snake River Plain Aquifer, Idaho

Explore the amazing springs and groundwater system of Thousand Springs in south central Idaho with geology professor Shawn Willsey. This vast and important water resource is part of the Snake River Plain aquifer and travels hundreds of miles over 150-200 years underground, fighting through the available pore space in the volcanic basalt before emerging as crystal clear spring water along the canyon walls.
