SunValley is an affluent resort community in Blaine County, Idaho, USA, adjacent to the city of Ketchum.
The term "SunValley" is also used more generally to speak of the region surrounding the city, including the neighboring city of Ketchum and the valley area winding south to Hailey.
For SunValley's fourth season, three chairlifts (in series) were installed on Bald Mountain during the summer of 1939, in the River Run area, the northeast face of the mountain overlooking Ketchum and SunValley.
The mission of the SunValley Watershed Stakeholders Group is to solve the local flooding problem while retaining all stormwater runoff from the watershed, increasing water conservation, recreational opportunities, and wildlife habitat, and reducing stormwater pollution.
SunValley is a district of the northeast San Fernando Valley, known to many Angelenos as the site of gravel pits and innumerable media stories about seriously flooded intersections.
Monthly meetings of the SunValley Watershed Stakeholders Group are facilitated by the County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works, which is taking the lead on this innovative project.
