Text: This Court does not set aside findings of fact unless they are clearly erroneous. Weaver v. Stafford, 134 Idaho 691, 696, 8 P.3d 1234, 1239 (2000). We will not disturb findings of fact that are supported by substantial and competent evidence, even if there is conflicting evidence. Id. Evidence is substantial if a reasonable trier of fact would accept and rely upon it in determining whether a disputed point of fact has been proven. Miller v. Callear, 140 Idaho 213, 216, 91 P.3d 1117, 1120 (2004). However, this Court freely reviews the question of whether the facts found, or stipulated to, are sufficient to satisfy the legal requirements for the existence of an implied easement or a prescriptive easement. Davis v. Peacock, 133 Idaho 637, 640, 991 P.2d 362, 365 (1999).
