I meant to.... Really though, I didn't find much about ham involvement. I did find it mentioned in a few places but never anything specific, just the usual "ham radio operators were handleing emergency messages" type lines in an article or two. Most of the stuff on the net is about the actual dam break and immediate situation, I kept wanting more info on the long term recovery. anyway, I'll look through my bucket of links and see if anything comes up and I'll post it here & email you a copy. thanks zeb Glenn,

I remember hearing that amateur operators aided in getting the word out that the dam was collapsing, in addition to providing communications in the aftermath. Do you have information on this?

I didn't realize that the Teton Dam break had flooded Rexburg. This is very interesting to me. Thank you. I was born in Rexburg in 1944. I didn’t realize that the Teton Dam break had flooded Rexburg.
