The Idaho Falls pioneer who helped women win the right to vote

IDAHO FALLS – As voters make their voices heard on Election Day, one Idaho woman’s story is a reminder that the right to vote wasn’t always guaranteed to everyone. When Rebecca Brown Mitchell arrived in Eagle Rock with her teenage daughter in 1882, the pair had little more than the clothes on their back. Fourteen years later, Rebecca would help lead a movement that made Idaho the fourth state in the nation to grant women the right to vote. The 48-year-old Illinois woman had come out West in hopes of being a missionary. Her husband had died 26 years earlier, leaving her a widow at age 22 with t...

Lace Up For Holiday-Season Skating At The Joe Marmo/Wayne Lehto Ice Arena In Idaho

The ice sheet here measures 85 feet by 190 feet. That’s a lot of room to wobble, glide, and pretend you meant to do that spin. Skates are waiting at the rental counter, so nobody needs to own a pair. A snack bar sits nearby for warm-up breaks between laps.

‘Deceived,’ Episode 1: Two children are missing and no one is talking

IDAHO FALLS — Nancy Jo Hancock, of Mesa, Ariz., could not believe what she was seeing and hearing. She had been watching an episode of “Dateline NBC” while folding laundry when she suddenly saw a picture of Charles Vallow, the man she had briefly dated six months earlier, appear on her TV screen. “And it’s the picture that he used on the dating site, so it’s a very familiar picture to me,” Hancock recalled. “I paused it, and I rewound it, and I listened, and I saw the date.” Now the show’s narrator was saying Vallow had been shot dead by his brother-in-law, Alex Cox — and it had happened the m...

When Snow Arrives, 7 Idaho Areas Open Groomed Trails For Cross-Country Skiing

Near Pocatello, one Nordic center grooms its ski trails seven days a week. Seven!. I love that someone heads out with a groomer before most of us find our coffee. That kind of care shows up across Idaho once the snow sticks. One state park gives skiers a warming yurt in the middle of the trail system.

About 40 to 50 locals from Pocatello to Rexburg made a fantasy film. It premieres Friday

IDAHO FALLS — For movie director Lance Witmer, making movies has always been the dream. He began writing and telling stories as a fourth grader, and he knew he was destined to be a storyteller. Now, his dream is coming to Idaho Falls. The feature film “Tales of Ardenmore” will screen at the Paramount Triplex Theater, kicking off with a public red carpet premiere on Oct. 30. Additional showings will be held Nov. 2-4, all at 6 p.m. “This is something that we made entirely in Idaho Falls and the Southeast Idaho region,” Witmer said. “It’s a collaborative effort of close to 40 or 50 people across the board from Pocatello, Idaho Falls, Rigby, Rexburg, that whole corridor all coming together to try to make this very ambitious medieval fantasy possible.” After graduating from film school in Los Angeles, Witmer and his family moved to Idaho Falls, where he has been working to make his dream a reality. He wrote, shot, directed and edited the film, which is now just days away from its debut. The movie follows Frederick, a squire, and Annika, a peasant girl, as they try to rescue Frederick’s brother, Henry, from an undead sorcerer called the

Kambell Richards quietly goes from cancer treatment to leading Century to best state golf finish ever

Kambell Richards couldn’t stop crying. One bad hole in the opening round of the 5A state golf tournament on Oct. 12 had opened the floodgates for the Century senior. When coach Mikel Green met up with her near the turn at The Links Golf Club in Post Falls, she walked alongside Richards and reminded her how far she had come. “She was just like, ‘But nobody else knows that,’” Green said. “And I was like, ‘No, nobody would. But you’re amazing.’” Few people did know. Just months earlier, Richards had been diagnosed with melanoma. She spent her summer in treatment, had surgery in August and missed the first month and a half of her final high school season. But none of that stopped her from finishing third and leading the Diamondbacks to a runner-up finish — the best in program history. “I didn’t know if she would be able to even come back,” said Green a cancer survivor herself. “I didn’t know if she’d be able to come back and be as strong as she was.” Richards was golfing with her family at Juniper Hills Country Club in the spring. While sizing up a shot, she rested her hand against
