Several participants arrived on Thursday to enjoy the deep forests and quiet waters of the reserved campground on Lake Chatcolet, while many members enthusiastically converged with their colleagues from across the state by Friday evening. Most members stayed through Sunday evening or Monday morning, participating in a dozen activities hosted by the White Pine Chapter. All of us who experienced this exuberant, sunny weekend together will remember the gathering as a bright spot in our shared quest to better understand and appreciate the bountiful natural wonders of Idaho and the good people who know and love its botanical treasures.

  • Cassia Resource Management Plan Amendment of Castle Rock EA
    United States Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Cassia Resource Management Plan Amendment at Castle Rocks Environmental Assessment DOI-BLM-ID-T020-2013-0010-EA U.S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Land Management Twin Falls District Burley Field Office 15 East 200 South Burley, Idaho, 83318 Phone: (208) 677-6600 FAX: (208) 677-6699 PURPOSE AND NEED FOR ACTION BACKGROUND Castle Rocks is a dramatic geologic area located in the southern Albion Mountain Range of Cassia County, Idaho. Castle Rocks consist primarily of Quartz-monzonite, a type of granite associated with the Almo Pluton. Pinnacles and monoliths, towering over 400 feet in local relief, characterize the area. Similar in appearance to features in City of Rocks National Reserve a few miles south, Castle Rocks is also popular with climbers. Castle Rocks currently contains near pristine cultural and natural resources. Until 2003, access to Castle Rocks public lands was limited to a difficult and lengthy hike from Steins Pass. The Castle Rock Ranch Acquisition Act of 2000 authorized the National Park Service (NPS) to purchase a private ranch that provided convenient public access on the east side of the geologic area. The NPS was not authorized to manage the property for recreation, but instead was instructed to exchange it with the Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation (IDPR) for property within Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument. Since May 25, 2003, IDPR has provided park facilities and managed recreation at Castle Rocks. Climbers are the largest user group, and many pass through the state park to climb the higher granite towers on lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and the USDA Forest Service.
