2020 CHRISTMAS TREE PERMIT USDA Forest Service SAWTOOTH NATIONAL FOREST 2020 CHRISTMAS TREE PERMIT USDA Forest Service SAWTOOTH NATIONAL FOREST A $10.00 permit is good for one tree up to twenty feet. PERMIT TERMS Open tree-cutting areas are identified on the following maps -- all other areas are closed. Tree tag must be attached to the tree when cut and placed so it will be visible while transporting the tree. You must also have your permit and maps with you during cutting and transporting your tree. Attatch your tag to the tree so it is visible from the rear of the vehicle when transporting. Stumps must be cut no higher than 4 inches above the ground. This may require digging well below the snow level to find the ground! Taking only the top of a taller tree is prohibited. Lodgepole pine, subalpine fir and Douglas-fir are available for cutting. Do NOT cut Engelmann spruce, ponderosa pine or the five needled whitebark pine. Trees may NOT be cut within 200 feet of campgrounds, organization camps, summer home areas and other facilities. Cut at least 150 feet from lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands on the Ketchum Ranger District and Sawtooth NRA. Cut at least 300 feet from lakes, rivers, streams, and wetlands on the Fairfield and Minidoka Ranger Districts. Do not drag trees across groomed cross country ski and snowmobile trails. Winter recreation motorized and non-motorized travel restrictions apply. Check with local Forest Service Offices for information. Merry Christmas!

    U.S. Geological Survey radiometric ages—compilation "C" Part four: Idaho, Oregon, and Washington R.H. Marvin, H.H. Mehnert, C.W. Naeser, and R.E. Zartman Isochron/West, Bulletin of Isotopic Geochronology, v. 53, pp. 3-13 Downloaded from: https://geoinfo.nmt.edu/publications/periodicals/isochronwest/home.cfml?Issue=53 Isochron/West was published at irregular intervals from 1971 to 1996. The journal was patterned after the journal Radiocarbon and covered isotopic age-dating (except carbon-14) on rocks and minerals from the Western Hemisphere. Initially, the geographic scope of papers was restricted to the western half of the United States, but was later expanded. The journal was sponsored and staffed by the New Mexico Bureau of Mines (now Geology) & Mineral Resources and the Nevada Bureau of Mines & Geology. All back-issue papers are available for free: https://geoinfo.nmt.edu/publications/periodicals/isochronwest This page is intentionally left blank to maintain order of facing pages. U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY RADIOMETRIC AGES-COMPILATION "C" Part four: Idaho, Oregon, and Washington RICHARD F. MARVIN HARALD H. MEHNERT U.S. Geological Survey, Federal Center, Denver, CO 80225 CHARLES W. NAESER ROBERT E. ZARTMAN This is part four of the third compilation of a planned series of age determinations by the U.S. Geological Survey appearing in Isochron/West. It contains both unpublished and published dates. However,the latter ages lacked either a specific sample location, petrologic information, or ana lytical data in their published form. Such specifics are often needed for evaluation and utilization of an isotopic age. That, we believe, is the value of this compilation—it sup plies such information for most of the listed samples.

  • By David M. Miller Open-File Report 81-463 This Report Is Preliminary
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL SURVEY PROPOSED CORRELATION OF AN ALLOCHTHONOUS QUARTZITE SEQUENCE IN THE ALBION MOUNTAINS, IDAHO, WITH PROTEROZOIC Z AND LOWER CAMBRIAN STRATA OF THE PILOT RANGE, UTAH AND NEVADA by David M. Miller Open-File Report 81-463 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U. S. Geological Survey editorial standards and stratigraphic nomenclature. ABSTRACT A thick sequence of quartzite and schist exposed on Mount Harrison in the Albion Mountains, Idaho, is described and tentatively correlated with the upper part of Proterozoic Z McCoy Creek Group and Proterozoic Z and Lower Cambrian Prospect Mountain Quartzite (restricted) in the Pilot Range, Utah and Nevada, on the basis of lithology, thickness, and sedimentary structures. Correlations with early Paleozoic or middle Proterozoic strata exposed in central Idaho are considered to be less probable. Rapid thickness changes and locally thick conglomerates in Unit G of McCoy Creek Group (and its proposed correlatives in the Albion Mountains) indicate that cJepositional environments were variable locally. Environments were more uniform during the deposition of limy shaly and limestone in the top of Unit G and quartz sandstone in subsequent strata. The strata on Mount Harrison identified as Proterozoic Z and Lower Cambrian in this study are part of an overturned, structurally complicated sequence of metasedimentary rocks that lie tec topically on overturned, metamorphosed Ordovician carbonate strata and possible metamorphosed Cambrian shale, suggesting that a typical miogeoclinal sequence (Proterozoic Z to Ordovician) was possibly once present near the Albion Mountains area. Elsewhere in the Albion Mountains and the adjoining Raft River and Grouse Creek Mountains, however, Ordovician carbonate rocks appear to stratigraphically overlie metamorphosed clastic rocks of uncertain age that are dissimilar to miogeoclinal rocks of the region.

    IDAHO BOUNDARY TRAIL HIKERS GUIDE 2020 By MIKE O’BRIEN & Jim “Yeti” Fulmis Copyright © 2020 www.fultek.com/ibt Please note that any discrepancies such as US Post office hour changes, prices, businesses closed or burned down is way beyond our control. If you discover changes, please send us information via email ([email protected]). This will help us to keep this guide up to date as best as possible. We did the trail in 2016 and updated everything, including all tracks and waypoints, which can be found at www.fultek.com/ibt. Trail closures, fires, or storms that blow down a lot of trees can and will happen. We discovered that ourselves in 2016. If you can, track anything you find different or just describe the differences and send those to the above email address. Tracks should be in GPX form. Also, there will be a text file named IBT_Hikers_Guide_Updates.txt online at www.fultek.com/ibt for any changes or additions we find out about after the book is published. Cover Photo: On the way to Owyhee State Park. Copyright © 2020 Mike O’Brien & Jim “Yeti” Fulmis Edited by: Melanie Simmerman All rights reserved. ISBN-13: 978-1793257536 Why another long trail? When we looked at a map of Idaho we saw a wide variety of terrain, desert, forest, mountains; lots of mountains. Not only that, but the border was mostly public land where we could choose where to hike and camp. Could we hike all the way around? It would be tough. First, we had to figure out a route, one that had reliable water in the desert (no trail angels in the Owyhee Desert!), and a route that touched the special places, like the Tetons, the Bitterroot and Selkirk Mountains, the cedar rainforests in the north.
