I’ve witnessed some pretty crazy storms in the Mini-Cassia area but haven’t always been able to capture them. I was on my way to Burley from the Declo area and spotted this crazy storm brewing over Rupert. This shot was taken on 03-30-2010 – shooting northeast from this location.

Jason Lugo
After many summer boating trips to the Snake River in Declo. It didn't take long for Jason Lugo to realize that this is where he had to live. So he moved his family from the Herriman Utah to Declo in February of 2006 and never looked back. They built their "dream life" on the banks of the Snake River in Declo not even a mile from the KOA Campground where they often stayed while on vacation. Being a graphic artist and photographer Jason began to discover this beautiful region through his lens. With his experience in producing a Utah magazine for a client of his it didn't take long for Jason to conceptualize and bring to life Southern Idaho Living Magazine. So now he enjoys meeting new people and discovering new places as he travels Southern Idaho shooting photography and producing great stories for Southern Idaho Living.

It’s that first chill of fall… where the cold morning air pulls a dense fog out of the river. As the morning sun attempts to burn off the misty magenta clouds the geese make one last attempt to splash and play on the cool waters before taking flight to feed in the nearby corn fields. [...]
