  • F I N a L Mineral Assessment Report
    BLM F I N A L MINERAL ASSESSMENT REPORT Battle Mountain District Office - Nevada J A N U A R Y 2 0 1 2 This page intentionally left blank Bureau of Land Management Mineral Assessment Report SUMMARY The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Battle Mountain District Office (BMDO) is in the process of revising the district’s Resource Management Plan (RMP). As part of the RMP revision process, the BLM is required to prepare a Mineral Assessment Report providing information regarding mineral occurrences and potential within the BMDO Planning Area (planning area). This report provides an intermediate level of detail for mineral assessment as prescribed in BLM Manual 3060 (BLM 1994). Information presented in this report will be summarized and incorporated into an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed RMP and into the final RMP. The geologic history of central and southern Nevada and the planning area is very complex and includes two major cycles of sedimentation (western and eastern facies sources), episodic thrust faulting, mountain building, and associated intrusive and igneous activity. More recent geologic history includes a period of crustal extension that was accompanied by bimodal (rhyolite-basalt) volcanism, large volume caldera volcanism, and basin and range block-faulting resulting in high-levels of shallow crustal heat flow. The regional and local geologic setting has been instrumental in the location of and potential for numerous economic metallic mineral deposits in the planning area, as well as development of economic geothermal resources. MINING AND MINERAL ACTIVITY IN NEVADA Mineral exploration, particularly for gold, is an ongoing enterprise in Nevada by both operators of existing mines and by other exploration companies.

  • Hiking the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho - 2 July 31 – August 11, 2021 (Trip# 2154)
    Hiking the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho - 2 July 31 – August 11, 2021 (trip# 2154) Alice Lake, Sawtooth Wilderness We are glad that you are interested in this exciting trip! Please read the information carefully, and contact us if you have specific questions about this trip: Leslie Carson 508-737-6627; [email protected] or Denise Fredette 207-939- 3670; [email protected]. For general questions about AMC Adventure Travel, please email [email protected]. SUMMARY The Sawtooth Range is a mountain range of the Rocky Mountains, located in Central Idaho. It is named for its jagged peaks. Much of the range is located within the Sawtooth Wilderness. Bordered to the east lies 30-mile long Sawtooth Valley and the town of Stanley, our home for the majority of this trip. To the east of the valley are the White Cloud Mountains. These peaks offer a unique perspective, looking across the valley at the jagged Sawtooth. On this 12-day adventure, we'll explore the alpine lakes, high divides and summits of the Sawtooth and White Cloud. After arriving in Boise, Idaho, we’ll meet the group at our welcome dinner and gather some supplies for the trip. After one night in Boise, we’ll leave it behind for a three hour scenic drive to the town of Stanley, our home for eight nights. We'll enjoy moderate to challenging hikes ranging from 7 to 17 miles per day. We’ll see wildflowers and wildlife, pristine lakes, jagged peaks and one panorama after another. We’ll experience the unique terrain and mountain air as we climb to several divides and summits between 9,000’ and 10,000’.

  • Appendix C Roadless Area Re-Evaluation
    Appendix C Roadless Area Re-evaluation SAWTOOTH NATIONAL FOREST INVENTORIED ROADLESS AREAS Blackhorse Creek Roadless Area No. 0414039 7,709 acres DESCRIPTION This area includes the small northwestern portion of what was the Buttercup Mountain IRA (Roadless Area No. 14018) in the 1987 Sawtooth National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (Forest Plan). During the Forest Plan Revision roadless area inventory update, the Buttercup IRA was divided into three separate areas because the existing roads that separate them were considered to be too highly developed to meet wilderness standards. The Blackhorse Creek IRA is located in Camas County, within the Fairfield Ranger District, about 13 miles north of Fairfield, Idaho. It is bordered on the north and west by the Ketchum-Featherville Road (Forest Road 227), and on the southwest and southeast by the Little Smoky Creek Road (Forest Road 015). The topography is very steep over much of the area. Precipitation averages from 16 to 20 inches. The elevations range from around 6,200 feet to over 8,400 feet. The slopes are generally vegetated up to the ridgelines with Douglas-fir, subalpine fir, and some lodgepole pine on the northern and eastern slopes. The southern and western slopes are vegetated with mountain shrub-sagebrush-grass communities. The brush communities include snowberry, bitterbrush, and sagebrush. Aspen is present but it is in decline due to fire exclusion and conifer encroachment. CAPABILITY Natural Integrity and Appearance: Natural integrity and apparent naturalness are rated low because of mining activities, improved and unimproved roads along the borders, interior exclusions, and range management activities.
