Just a note for clarification.

I’m not going to quote all 75 sections of Idaho state law that deal  
with trespassing. But, in summary, trespassing on property requires  
leaving gates open, damaging property in specified ways, or ignoring  
"no trespassing" signs posted at defined intervals/in defined places  
(see 18-7011 below.) Trespassing on privacy requires peering into a  
structure without having a visible or lawful purpose (see 18-7006  
below).

to show the boundaries of the land inclosed, shall go upon such lands  
and shall leave open any gates on or about said premises, or who  
shall tear down or lay down any fencing, or who shall willfully  
remove, mutilate, damage or destroy any "No Trespassing" signs or  
markers, or who shall go through cultivated crops that have not been  
harvested, or who shall damage any property thereon, or who without  
permission of the owner or the owner's agent enters the real property  
of another person where such real property is posted with "No  
Trespassing" signs or other notices of like meaning spaced at  
intervals of not less than one (1) notice per six hundred sixty (660)  
feet along such real property, is guilty of a misdemeanor and on  
conviction thereof shall be punished by imprisonment in a county jail  
not exceeding six (6) months or by a fine of not less than twenty- 
five dollars ($25.00) and not more than one thousand dollars ($1,000)  
or by both such fine and imprisonment. Where the geographical  
configuration of the real property is such that entry can reasonably  
be made only at certain points of access, such property is posted  
sufficiently for all purposes of this section if said signs or  
notices are posted at such points of access.
     As used in this subsection and in section 18-7008, Idaho Code:  
"enters," "entry" and "entering" mean going upon or over real  
property either in person or by causing any object, substance or  
force to go upon or over real property.
     (2)  No motor vehicle shall be willfully or intentionally driven  
into, upon, over or through any private land actively devoted to  
cultivated crops without the consent of the owner of the land or the  
tenant, lessee or agent of the owner of the land actively devoted to  
cultivated crops. Violation of the provisions of this section shall  
be a misdemeanor. For the purpose of this subsection, motor vehicle  
shall be defined as set forth in sections 49-114 and 49-123, Idaho  
Code. Land actively devoted to cultivated crops shall be defined as  
land that is used to produce field crops including, but not limited  
to, grains, feed crops, legumes, fruits and vegetables.
