  • AVALANCHE ACCIDENT- Boardman Pass SUBMITTED BY
    AVALANCHE ACCIDENT- Boardman Pass SUBMITTED BY: Sawtooth National Forest Avalanche Center LOCATION: 15 Miles northwest of Fairfield, ID DATE: January 28, 2010 SUMMARY: 1 snowmobiler caught, buried and killed SYNOPSIS: On January 28, 2010, a group of five backcountry snowmobilers were riding near Boardman Pass in the Soldier Mountains of southern Idaho. This area is approximately 15 miles northwest of Fairfield, Idaho and is often accessed from the popular Chimney Creek trailhead. Two riders were climbing the west side of Pt. 9538 when a slide started above the uppermost rider. A third rider watched as moving snow overtook the first rider and the second rider turned to the climber’s left and out of the slide. The slide carried the victim over a thousand vertical feet downhill and buried him four to five feet deep next to his snowmachine; the debris continued several hundred vertical feet further downhill. The party quickly regrouped, located the burial site with a beacon and dug deep enough to provide an airway within an estimated 25 minutes. CPR was unsuccessful. The SS-AMu-D3-R2 avalanche was 2 to 3 feet deep, approximately 300ft wide and ran over 1300 vertical feet. Prior to the accident, the Soldier Mountains had received over 3” of Snow Water Equivalent and roughly three feet of snow since January 12. Moderate to strong southerly and westerly winds had accompanied the snowfall, with wind speeds peaking five days before the accident. The mid-January snowfall fell on an unusually weak layer that had been a concern the entire season. A widespread natural avalanche cycle had occurred in much of the advisory area the weekend prior to the accident, and a smaller avalanche had claimed the life of a skier a week earlier; the local and regional press had covered that accident extensively.

Lauvaux © 2019 Catherine T. Lauvaux Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2019 The dissertation of Catherine T. Lauvaux was reviewed and approved* by the following: Alan H. Taylor Professor of Geography Dissertation Advisor Chair of Committee Andrew M. Carleton Professor of Geography Erica A.H. Smithwick Professor of Geography Margot Wilkinson Kaye Associate Professor of Forest Ecology Cynthia Ann Brewer Head of the Department of Geography *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Naturally functioning forest ecosystems have been called gemstones of the Rocky Mountain landscape, and yet, since Euro-American settlement, these forests have been altered by land-use, fire suppression, extreme wildfires, and climate change. Understanding the changes is limited by lack of information about historical conditions. Knowledge of pre-settlement vegetation patterns and disturbance processes may also be useful in predicting and mitigating future ecological impacts. This study uses repeat aerial photography, fire-scar dendrochronology, tree population age structure, and grazing reports to determine fire history and land-use history and the characteristics, timing, and drivers of vegetation change in a forest-sagebrush-grassland mosaic in the Soldier Mountains, Idaho. Fire frequency before 1900 was greater in low-elevation Douglas-fir forests than high- elevation whitebark pine forests (mean interval of 31(±28.8) years vs 66 (±34.4) years).

  • IDAHO ACTION PLAN (V3.0) for Implementing the Department of the Interior Secretarial Order 3362
    IDAHO ACTION PLAN (V3.0) For Implementing the Department of the Interior Secretarial Order 3362: “Improving Habitat Quality in Western Big-Game Winter Range and Migration Corridors” 10 September 2020 PREFACE Secretarial Order No. 3362 (SO3362) (09 February 2018; Appendix B) directs the Department of Interior (DOI) to assist western tribes, private landowners, state fish and wildlife agencies, and state transportation departments with conserving and managing priority big game winter ranges and migration corridors. Per SO3362, the DOI invited state wildlife agencies in 2018 to develop action plans identifying big game priority areas and corresponding management efforts across jurisdictional boundaries. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) and DOI jointly developed Idaho’s first version (V1.0) of the SO3362 Action Plan in 2018, which identified 5 Priority Areas for managing pronghorn, mule deer, and elk winter range and migration habitat (Appendix A and D). V2.0 was prepared in 2019 with support from the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD). This V3.0 was also prepared in coordination with ITD in response to DOI’s 14 April 2020 letter to IDFG (Appendix E) requesting updated Priority Area information. Correspondingly, IDFG views this Action Plan as a living document to be reviewed and updated as needed, for example when new priorities emerge, revised information becomes available, and management efforts are completed. Each version of Idaho’s Action Plan applies best available information to identify current and future needs for managing big game winter range and migration habitat, highlight ongoing and new priority management needs, leverage collaborative resources, and narrow focus to 5 Priority Areas.

Moseley Conservation Data Center February 1995 Idaho Department of Fish and Game 600 South Walnut, P.O. Box 25 Boise, Idaho 83707 Jerry M. Conley, Director % Boise District BLM Idaho Department of Fish and Game Purchase Order No. D050-P4-0268 ABSTRACT Least phacelia (Phacelia minutissima) is a widely distributed, but rarely observed species, known from eight disjunct collection sites in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Nevada. Due to the rangewide conservation concern, it was recently added to the list of candidate plants being considered for listing as endangered or threatened under the Endangered Species Act. No systematic survey has been conducted in Idaho. To rectify this paucity of information, I conducted a field survey in the vicinity of all known Idaho sites during 1994, but was unsuccessful in relocating the old collection sites or finding new populations. Recent systematic searches and general floristic inventories in the other three states have also failed to relocate any populations. This report is the status of our knowledge of the distribution and conservation status of least phacelia throughout its range, with an emphasis on Idaho. Because no populations have been seen recently, threats to population and species viability are unknown, although the Oregon population is considered extirpated. Before useful conservation recommendations can be made for leas't phacelia the eight known collections sites must be relocated.

    Chapter III Soldier Creek/Willow Creek Management Area 10 III - 218 Chapter III Soldier Creek/Willow Creek Management Area 10 Management Area 10 Soldier Creek/Willow Creek MANAGEMENT AREA DESCRIPTION Management Prescriptions - Management Area 10 has the following management prescriptions (see map on preceding page for distribution of prescriptions). Percent of Management Prescription Category (MPC) Mgt. Area 4.1c – Maintain Unroaded Character with Allowance for Restoration Activities 80 4.2 – Roaded Recreation Emphasis 4 6.1 – Restoration and Maintenance Emphasis within Shrubland & Grassland Landscapes 16 General Location and Description - Management Area 10 is comprised of Forest Service administered lands within primarily the upper portions of the Soldier Creek and Willow Creek drainages north of Fairfield, Idaho (see map, preceding page). The area is an estimated 56,600 acres, including several private land inholdings that, together, make up about 8 percent of the area. The main inholdings are in the Soldier and Willow Creek corridors. The area is bordered by Sawtooth National Forest to the north, west, and east, and by a mix of private, BLM, and State lands to the south. The primary uses and activities in this area have been livestock grazing, winter recreation, dispersed motorized recreation, irrigation water, and mining. Access - The main access to the area is from the south up Soldier Creek via Forest Road 094 from Fairfield, or from the south up Willow Creek via Forest Road 017. The density of classified roads in the management area is estimated at 0.5 miles per square mile. Total road density for area subwatersheds ranges between 0 and 2.4 miles per square mile.
