It’s also no wonder why so many eastern Idaho residents enjoy getting out in nature and Aexperiencing God’s country. Although there are numerous ways to recreate, one of the more popular summer activities is off-road travel on ATVs and side-by-sides. Eastern Idaho epitomizes the flavor of its western heritage. Pioneers, miners and loggers blazed their trails across our landscape. Many of the more rugged and out-of-the-way trails are still accessible on Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands. Partnerships between state and federal governments and motorized recreation groups have created an extensive trail system that opens the backcountry and offers exciting off-road riding for both residents and visitors to eastern Idaho.

  • SILVER SLOPES: PRESERVING NORTH AMERICA's SKI LODGES by WILLIAM CHAD BLACKWELL (Under the Direction of Wayde Brown) ABSTRACT
    SILVER SLOPES: PRESERVING NORTH AMERICA’S SKI LODGES by WILLIAM CHAD BLACKWELL (Under the Direction of Wayde Brown) ABSTRACT An examination of the unique case for the historic preservation of the ski lodges of North America. A brief history and evolution of ski resorts addresses the historic significance of ski lodges as a cultural resource. Case studies of five ski lodges provide a representative look at this unique resource. An analysis of the ski lodge as a cultural resource, its place as a twentieth century building type, and the ramifications in a preservation context concludes the argument.

  • Sun Valley Tpage.Cdr
    II. INVENTORY .1 Introduction The inventory stage includes the identification, analysis and mapping of all on- site and off-site factors which may affect the development potential of the Sun Valley ski area. The inventory data includes: the land status, climatic, biophysical, and physiographic characteristics of the study area, as well as an analysis of the existing ski area. The study area identified for mountain planning purposes encompasses about 8,180 acres in and around the Bald Mountain portion of the Sun Valley ski area and 1,030 acres in and around the Dollar Mountain ski area. Through an understanding of the site's existing conditions and natural process, environmentally sensitive areas can largely be avoided and natural development opportunities maximized. As a prelude to discussing the mountain's characteristics, it is appropriate to familiarize the reader with the basic requirements of ski area development. Ski area development is generally considered to be a non-consumptive resource use of the land. The development of ski lifts and ski trails requires the use of approximately 50 percent of the area in small, heavily developed zones. Ski lift right-of-ways are characteristically 40 to 50 feet in width, while ski trails vary between 100 and 200 feet wide. Subsequent to rough grading by practices selected for each site, the trails require fine grooming and in some cases, seeding to establish a grass cover. This grass cover prevents erosion, helps to minimize hazards and damage to the skiers’ and snowboarders’ equipment during low snowpack periods and possible damage to the area's snow grooming fleet.
