Local context
Driggs and the broader Teton Valley have a heavy second-home + cabin market. These properties sit empty for months at a stretch, with heating turned down and ventilation off. Snow accumulates, partial melts refreeze around foundations, and indoor relative humidity climbs from 30% to 70% with no occupant noticing. By the time the owner returns in spring, mold is well-established.
Teton Valley winter is colder and longer than the Snake River Plain. Spring melt is later but more intense. Roof-snow-melt ice damming is common, and the resulting attic and wall-cavity moisture is one of the top causes of mold here.

Mold is a moisture problem first. Moisture patterns are climate-specific. We've worked in Idaho long enough to know what fails in Driggs specifically - and what does not.
