My favorite spring creek runs close to the Snake River, and, when they crank the river outflow up, the spring will sometimes run high and murky even though there is no inflow from the main river. Appears to be water table related. It usually takes about three weeks to get back to normal as far as clarity, and about a month and a half to get the level back down to normal. Go figure.
