Salmon Area Recreation Sites Seek Feedback on Proposed Fee Changes and Enhancements
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Salmon, Idaho, is seeking public input on a new business plan for eight recreational sites managed by the Salmon Field Office. The plan aims to improve visitor services and manage fees to cover increasing costs in operations, maintenance, and emergency responses, driven by higher visitor numbers. The affected sites include Williams Lake and McFarland Campgrounds, Sharkey Hot Springs, Geertson Shelter, Shoup Bridge, Tower Rock, and Morgan Bar Campgrounds.
Lemhi County's Wildlife Habitat Expanded: BLM Acquires 80 Acres for Conservation and Recreation
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has joined forces with The Conservation Fund and the Carlson family. They have acquired 80 acres of important wildlife habitat in Lemhi County, Idaho. This acquisition was funded by the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF). It aims to protect species like sage-grouse, elk, mule deer, and moose. The area, called the Park Creek parcel, will also offer uninterrupted access for hikers and hunters. This aligns with President Biden's America the Beautiful initiative.
