Man suing Boise over island gives tour of land he claims

EAST END, Idaho — A man at the center of a bizarre legal battle over a patch of land along the Boise River says it’s not just his home, it’s his mission.

Last week, Idaho News 6 reported on a lawsuit over a strip of land known as Sawmill Island, a narrow, undeveloped section between the Boise River and an irrigation canal. This week, Chris Burdge offered a tour of the land he says he’s lived on, periodically, since 2017.
