HISTORY of the CHALLIS NATIONAL FOREST a Compilation HISTORY OF THE CHALLIS NATIONAL FOREST A Compilation USDA Forest Service Intermountain Region Introduction This is a transcription of the Challis National Forest history cataloged in the R4 History Collection as R4-1680-2006-0238. It is apparent that various people added to the original compilation over a period of several years. Forest Service retiree LeAnn Tracy retyped the document so it could be available to and searchable by a wider audience. We have taken the liberty of correcting spelling and typographical errors, reformatting to improve readability (including the addition of headers), relocating some additions to their relevant sections, and generating a table of contents. The original compilation referred to appendices in a “separate folder” but we do not have these. They are: 1. Proclamations 2. Newspaper clippings 3. Progress reports 4. Challis fact sheets 5. Bibliography of historical books 6. Miscellaneous publications, periodicals, etc. 7. Old History File Folder 8. Charlie Langer Memorial 9. Photographs (see photo file for additional pictures) 10.

Chapter One: Beneath the Spanish Moss: The World of the Root Doctor History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon. Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) The thing always happens that you really believe in; and the belief in a thing makes it happen. Frank Lloyd Wright, architect (1869-1959) For many of us growing up in the 1960s rural South, the world of ghosts, witches and magic was never far away. Grandparents and parents often told hair-raising stories of mysterious happenings and eerie events as a form of entertainment, as children sat entranced in wide-eyed amazement. The idea of a ghost or witch out there in the dark filled many a night with excitement and wonder. In many homes, the sense of the presence of a beloved, deceased family member was often noted with comfort and the reassurance that we would someday “meet on that golden shore.” In this era, before the Internet and television’s mindless absorption of our free time, we often felt we could sense that which was unseen, and provided we didn’t make too much of a fuss about it, we were free to believe in the miraculous without fear of rebuke or censure.

  • Monitoring White Cloud Milkvetch (Astragalus Vexilliflexus Var. Nubilus) on the Sawtooth National Recreation Area: Baseline Results, 2005
    MONITORING WHITE CLOUD MILKVETCH (ASTRAGALUS VEXILLIFLEXUS VAR. NUBILUS) ON THE SAWTOOTH NATIONAL RECREATION AREA: BASELINE RESULTS, 2005 Idaho Conservation Data Center Idaho Department of Fish and Game PO Box 25 Boise, Idaho 83707 Michael Mancuso 2006 Sawtooth National Forest and Idaho Department of Fish and Game ABSTRACT White Cloud milkvetch (Astragalus vexilliflexus var. nubilus) is a U.S. Forest Service, Region 4 sensitive plant species known from ten occurrences, all located within the Sawtooth National Recreation Area. It is endemic to an approximately 21 km x 10 km area on the eastern slope of the White Cloud Peaks and western slope of the adjacent Boulder Mountains in Custer County, Idaho. In 2005, the Sawtooth National Forest contracted the Idaho Department of Fish and Game’s Idaho Conservation Data Center to establish a monitoring program for this species. White Cloud milkvetch census, plant community, and ground disturbance information was collected along permanently marked transects at eight of the ten known occurrences. Photo point photographs and the collection of additional occurrence area disturbance and threat information were also part of the monitoring protocol. Baseline results showed occurrences had variable White Cloud milkvetch density and habitat characterized by low vegetation cover. The majority had minimal or no disturbance. The landscape surrounding all occurrences was dominated by native vegetation and unfragmented except for occasional secondary roads. Bowery Ridge is the occurrence requiring the most immediate management attention. Recent off-trail motorcycle and heavy cattle use were observed within and near the occurrence. Imminent, serious threats were not observed within the other occurrences visited. Periodic monitoring is recommended to ensure managers are kept appraised of population and habitat trends, the status of any threats, and to evaluate whether directed management actions such as grazing allotment boundary adjustments, are having the intended effect.
