Historic snow and rain don't seem to be helping the sliding of homes in the Boise foothills.

Sky7 was able to capture new aerial video of the Alto Via Court neighborhood Wednesday. KTVB's drone operators said they could actually hear the pops and cracks of what seemed to be the crumbling structures.

Residents were forced to move out and abandon their homes after the shifting land was discovered last spring.
