Gas prices in Boise now average more than $4 per gallon for the first time this year.
The rest of Idaho may not be far behind.
Boise’s average mark was $4.01 per gallon on Wednesday, ahead of the statewide average of $3.94 — but that too could reach $4 by the end of this week, according to AAA.
AAA Idaho’s Matthew Conde says as travel ramps up, higher gas prices are unfortunate, but not unexpected.
Prices in the state are, on average, $1 per gallon cheaper than a year ago.
