The Sawtooth National Forest would like to encourage everyone to get out this Memorial Day holiday weekend and enjoy your National Forest. But you are encourage to...
KNOW BEFORE YOU GO!
People planning on recreating on the Sawtooth National Forest over the Memorial Day holiday weekend will find a number of facilities open and operating; however, due to the lingering snowpack at the higher elevations a number of roads and trails will be closed. Visitors should avoid driving or riding on muddy roads and trails to avoid damaging the running surface. Check with your local Forest Service office for current road and trail conditions, and pick up the new Motor Vehicle Use Map to know what roads and trails are open to motorized use. Many campsites are first come-first serve, but there are also campsites that can be reserved in advance. These sites can be reserved at www.Recreation.gov or by phone at 1-877-444-6777. Also, campground fees may be in effect for some areas. Another important reminder for visitors this weekend is to be sure to put your campfire out when leaving your campsite for the day or for the weekend. There are many places on the forest at the lower elevations that are very dry, so ensure that your campfire is dead out before leaving the site. Visitors to the Sawtooth National Forest are encouraged to bring their own drinking water and be prepared to haul their trash back home. Even though many of the developed campgrounds will be open; there may be sites that do not have full service. For current road & trail conditions on the Minidoka Ranger District, call 208-678-0430. Current trail conditions for the Ketchum Ranger District can be found at: www.trails.bcrd.org, or by calling the Ketchum Ranger District at: 208-622-0091. Current conditions for the Sawtooth National Recreation Area can be obtained at 208-727-5013. The Fairfield Ranger District can be reached at 208-764-3202. Roads over Couch and Fleck Summits are open. Wells Summit road is currently closed due to snow but is expected to be cleared by Memorial weekend. Dollarhide Summit and many other higher elevation roads are closed due to the fact they are snow covered and inaccessible. Forest Service Road #227 between the South Fork Boise River/Big Smoky Creek confluence and Bowns Creek Campground remains closed due to washouts, as well as Buttercup Roads #418 and #418A. Baumgartner campground is CLOSED (check the Forest website and Sawtooth Facebook page for status updates).

Fishing Guide for Memorial Day Weekend
Serving with all Gentleness & Compassion...
Fishing License on your Smartphone
Summer is almost here, and Memorial Day weekend for many Idahoans is the unofficial kick off to the summer camping and fishing season. If you’re doing the first and not the latter, you’re missing out on a fantastic opportunity. May is among the best months for Idaho’s ponds, lakes and reservoirs, and some rivers will also be good for fishing, although many will be running high and cold with snow-melt run off. Fish and Game personnel from each region have highlighted some of the best bets for anglers and tried to keep an eye toward places with good camping, too. These spots offer a wide variety of fishing opportunities, and many are stocked with trout before the holiday weekend and well into summer. For a full list of Idaho’s fishing waters, check out our Idaho Fishing Planner and find places near you, or where you will be traveling this summer. There are 42 statewide fishing spots for you to consider for the weekend and beyond.
Imagine this scenario: You’re at your favorite fishing and camping spot for the weekend, and just as you grab your fishing rod to head to the lake or river, you realize you forgot to purchase a fishing license. Don’t panic, if you have a smartphone and cell service, you can purchase and download a ready-to-use fishing license in Idaho. If you already have an account on Fish and Game’s licensing system, you can visit idfg.huntfishidaho.net using your smartphone, and login using your user name and password associated with your account. If you do not have an online account with Idaho Fish and Game, tap the “Enroll Now” button and enter the required information to set up an account. Important note: Make sure that your profile name exactly matches the name on your driver’s license or state-issued identification, and also make sure you’re seeing the Fish and Game logo and buying through Fish and Game’s website.
Bethy (Higgins) Tews
With her telephone money, Bethy bought cattle to pasture at the Shoshone ranch. The fences were poor and the cows escaped. Out rounding up stray calves one day, she rode into the life of Lawrence Zeyn Tews, the handsome rancher next door. They married April 22, 1947. They ranched with the Tews Brothers in north Shoshone and south of Hailey, and later started a ranch of their own, the “Long Hike Ranch.” There they raised three children Richard, Laurene and Heather. An independent spirit, Bethy attended night school and received her office assistant certificate. Later she worked as a secretary for the Soil Conservation Service in Lincoln County for 11 years. Never one to stand still, Bethy took the Real Estate exam in the early 80’s and sold property in Magic Valley for the next 35 years. Chances are, if you bought a house or farm in Lincoln County during that time, Bethy was your agent. She maintained her license at Canyon Trail Realty in Jerome up until a year before her 94th birthday. She was an active member of the community, a member of the Magic Grange for 50 years, and even became an activist to protect local water rights and air quality from the encroachment of factory farms. Bethy and Larry lived on the Long Hike Ranch in north Shoshone from 1954 until Bethy sold the ranch in 2015. Larry died in 1998. The ranch was called Long Hike, because in the early days there weren’t any crossings over the ditches, so she and Larry walked a mile across the fields twice each day to change irrigation water for the alfalfa and wheat crops. After Larry’s death, Bethy was one of the first in north Shoshone to install a center pivot system to simplify this irrigation chore. Always a country girl at heart, at age 90, she refused to move to town to retire. Instead, she moved to Emmett where she found a piece of country life on a bluff overlooking the Payette River valley and above a working ranch where she could watch the cattle and the cowboys at work. In her last years, she traveled extensively, made good neighbors, took evening drives for Chinese food and explored the “north country” of Gem and Boise counties. 94 years is a lot of years to cram into an obituary. If you want to know more of this amazing story, you’ll have to visit with the family or... join Bethy and Larry in Heaven. Interment took place at the Shoshone Cemetery next to Larry’s Rock.

“Lo, here came an angel from Heaven on horseback!” This was Lawrence Zeyn Tews’ observation of his future wife in 1945. That angel, Marie Elizabeth Tews (Bethy) joined her cowboy, Larry in Heaven on May 8, 2019. Bethy started life April 6, 1925 at 6 o’clock in morning in Laramie, Wyoming. Bethy was born at home and delivered by her grandmother, Emma B Merrill, which gave her a close connection to this tough suffragette of the 1900’s. Bethy attributed that connection to her strong independent and sometimes stubborn spirit. The third child of George and Marie Higgins, she joined siblings - Emma and George and later - Garnet, Eunice, and Inez. Baby brother - Hallie completed the family. Born in the Roaring Twenties, Bethy was a poster child for the Greatest Generation. Her family went from the carefree days of post war America to the grit of the Depression. As a child, the family moved often. These moves revolved around farming seasons and winter work. They lived on ranches from Wheatland, Wyoming to northern Colorado and on to Southern Idaho’s Magic Valley. Grandpa George raised sheep, wheat, cattle and kids, supplementing the harvest freighting with his teams of horses and later with his Diamond Reo trucks. Moving became so common that Grandma Higgins could cook breakfast on the wood burning cook stove in the morning, load it on the truck and feed the kids supper in a new home before the stove had a chance to cool. Bethy started in a new school 24 times. Being the new kid taught her to stand her ground and, from an early age, taught her about hard work and how to start over. Bethy graduated from Jerome High School in 1943. In 1944, the family moved to a ranch north of Shoshone. During the war, she worked as a long-distance operator in the Jerome telephone office, and helped connect soldiers overseas with their loved ones back home in Jerome. It wasn’t easy. She would receive notice that a call would be forthcoming for a local family, then the phone company would send someone to notify them to come to the telephone office to receive the call because few rural homes had phones at that time. Some of these calls were families she knew.

Jack Burke
August 4, 1940—May 5, 2019
Jack Burke, Magic Valley resident, passed away peacefully on May 5th, from complications related to cancer. Born John Pat Burke on August 4, 1940 to John and Lucille Burke in Seattle, Washington. He was the youngest of two children, his older sister survives him and resides on Vancouver Island in Canada. In 1959, Jack graduated from Edmonds High School, North of Seattle. He met his eventual wife, Cathy, in 1958 and they dated off and on before Cathy moved to California, and Jack volunteered for the Army Draft. In 1960 he was installed and did his basic training at Fort Ord, CA, before being deployed to the Berlin Crisis of 1961 where he was a heavy truck operator hauling live ammunition near the Berlin Wall. Jack and Cathy reunited after his time in the service and they were married on June 5th, 1964. Shortly after marriage, the two purchased a small farm in Bothell, WA and started their life-long love of horsemanship and rodeo. They had one son, Jay, in September of 1967. They would live there until they moved to Idaho in November of 1974. Jack was always dreaming big, and typically found a way to see the best ones to fruition. His biggest dream was to move to Idaho and live the cowboy life, something he would accomplish in spades over the 45 years he lived there. The family spent many years in Wendell after purchasing a deteriorating old farmhouse and then working tirelessly to turn it into a “home.” During this time, if Jack wasn’t team roping, he was sweating over a home improvement project—he was very proud of the little farm they created there. Years later they built a horse ranch north of Shoshone where they lived for over 15 years before settling at their current property in Filer. Jack enjoyed a long career in the construction industry, a path he began forging with his first job as a window glazer in the greater Seattle area. In 1980 he began working sales in the Sun Valley area specializing in doors and custom windows, which lead to the final years of his career in Ketchum nurturing his share of ownership at GlassMasters.
