History of I.P. Bill's Island
The development of what is now known as I.P. Bills Island in Island Park. Idaho, is largely the results of the activities and efforts of Ivan P. Bills and his wife, Yetta S. Bills.
The Island Park Dam was completed on the North Fork of the Snake River in 1938 and the land belonging to A.S. Trude, above the dam, was flooded to form the Island Park Reservoir. Prior to the flooding it was discovered that there was indeed to be what is now known as Bills Island. It was arranged for a crossway to be built before the flooding took place. The Island became a favorite place for Judge Trude's picnics and outings which were regularly hosted by his daughter, Virginia. Flowers, berries and wildlife flourished abundantly.
