96% of Endowment Lands Accessible
(BOISE) An updated map showing detailed access to state endowment trust lands reveal that 96 percent of the lands are accessible for recreation. Maps showing the location of endowment lands have been available online for years, but the updated map focuses on which endowment lands are accessible for recreation. The IDL also is working with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game (IDFG) to add the new layer to the IDFG online interactive hunt planner map. The new map shows more than 2.3 million acres of the approximately 2.4 million acres of endowment lands in Idaho can be accessed by foot or by water, and some of the lands have motorized access as well. Approximately 103,000 acres are not accessible because they are surrounded by private landowners or because activities occurring on the lands make them unsafe for the public, such as within a military training area. During the 2017 legislative session, failed House Concurrent Resolution 20 continued on page 2...

in part would have required IDL to make information available about the legal accessibility of endowment lands. After the resolution was voted down, IDL Director Tom Schultz initiated the effort to make the information available on the IDL web site and through the IDFG online interactive hunt planner map. “There have been reports that state land management does not provide assured access for sportsmen and the public. The updated map reveals a more accurate picture,” IDL Director Tom Schultz said. “In addition to providing steady management activities that financially support Idaho’s public school system and Idaho’s rural economy, state endowment trust lands offer Idaho’s sportsmen and the public nearly limitless recreational access.” Additional information about recreation on endowment lands is available on the IDL web site: www.idl.idaho.gov/recreation

For more information, watch your mail box for the fair booklet, and have a great time.
Letter to the Editor
Dear Editor, On 07-08-2017, the Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame received an anonymous letter, hand written on the reservation form we sent out from our mailing list addressed to them in a disrespectful manner, in an envelope with postage paid that had no postmark indicating it was from out of town, so one must concur that it came from someone local. To the individual who wrote the disrespectful and erroneous letter, we would like to once again state that the Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame did not choose to move from Gooding or ”screw up a fun time permanently”. The fact is, the Idaho Rodeo Hall of Fame and Reunion outgrew the area in the Commercial Building where we held our event, it didn’t have adequate security and there were not enough volunteers to man the area for the 10 hrs a day during the 5 days of the fair required by Mr. Gill. After the inductions in 2015, Gooding County Fair Manager Don Gill informed the IRHF that the Commercial Building would no longer be available to us at which time the Jerome Historical Society who manages the I-Farm in Jerome was gracious enough to offer us a permanent building for the IRHF museum. The above being said, we would like you to know that we would welcome you to identify yourself and we invite you or anyone else to our regular board meetings who has a problem with where we have moved, where we
are holding our reunion and inductions, who we are inducting, why we are inducting them, or have any questions whatsoever. You know how to reach us. We would also like to invite you to volunteer your time like we have without payment of any sort for the countless hours we have all put in and submit a nomination form for yourself telling us about who you are, what you have accomplished and why you think you should be inducted and we would be happy to review it. Additionally, the opportunity has always been available to anyone to nominate whoever they thought deserved to be honored. We would also like you to know that it is unfortunate you are not enjoying your “fun time” in Gooding. You might find that there are still “Old Timers” who are going to the IRHF Annual Reunion who are enjoying themselves at our events in Twin Falls where they can hear, do not have to suffer the heat, can enjoy great music, eat great food, and mingle with old and new friends. Try it, you just might enjoy it and see people you know! Boots and Spurs Annual Cowboy and Cowgirl Reunion and Tough Enough To Wear Pink To Give Cancer The Boot, July 28th.

Cup of Tee
“Hello. Can you hear me now...” Those may have been some words I may of said a few months ago. I was running a large front-end loader, loading manure into trucks. I looked down on the ground and saw a cellphone smashed with flip cover at a right angle degree to the phone. I said, “Some unfortunate fool has just let me run over their phone.” I got off and retrieved the phone. Back in the loader, I started to look for my own phone. It was missing! Upon reinspecting the run-over phone I discovered it was my own. Then I said, “You unfortunate fool, you have run over your phone.” The story began to change once I realized my phone was the victim. I mashed things back together and twisted things back in place. To my amazement my phone still worked fine. Wow! Lucky me! Everyone keeps telling me, “Tee, you need to get a smart phone.” If I would of had a smart phone I don’t know that it would have been smart enough not to jump off my loader like my other phone did. Durability is huge for me. How many people do you know with smart phones and the glass is broken (a lot of them are). I believe the doomsdayers have put a karma link on my phone. Monday of this week, I pulled my phone out of my pocket and it slipped out of my hand. The phone fell on its end and broke into numerous pieces, ripping the insides out. There is nothing to activate power except the disconnected battery. There is not even light at the end of the tunnel, meaning the flash-
by Tee Hurd
light on my phone will not work. I have enjoyed my flashlight feature and I have tried to use it twice forgetting I have no flashlight. The sad thing is your texts are usually lost when a phone goes down. I had worked for a couple of weeks to get a specific phone number by running down various people. I had just received it two hours before my phone committed suicide. Maybe phone docs can save that research. If not, back to square one (a new square phone). How does one do a funeral for a cell phone? Who do you invite for a viewing? Is a viewing even acceptable? Who will speak at the funeral? Famous last words, “Can you hear me now...” Will one receive a megatron of photos from what they call “The Cloud”? These are perplexing questions that perhaps a smart phone would have answers. I may have to just “flip phones” since my phone is a flip phone. I have not taken pictures of my past dead phones. There is no photo album to be seen of their existence. My old black rotary phone does sit on the coffee table merely as the monument to prove that I still have a rotary phone, and for those who have never used one. This is my “Cup of Tee” can you hear me now?

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING FOR CAMAS COUNTY ZONING ORDINANCE NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN: on Monday, the 31th day of July, 2017 at 2:00PM or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, the Board of Commissioners of Camas County will hold a public hearing at the Camas County Senior Center, 125 Willow Ave West, Fairfield, Idaho, to receive a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Commission in accordance with Section 67-6509 and 67-6511, Idaho Code. The purpose of this hearing is for the public as well as the Board of Commissioners to hear the recommendation to adopt and move private aircraft landing field or airports from 2-4A-3, Conditional Uses to 2-4A-4 Principal Designated Uses and add “and registered with the FAA”. A copy of the draft document is available at the Camas County Planning and Zoning Office. A general summary of this provision of the Zoning Ordinance, Title 2, is as follows: The commission recommends the Board of Commissioners adopt and move private aircraft landing field or airports from 2-4A-4, Conditional Uses to 2-4A-3 Principal Designated Uses and add “and registered with the FAA”. This would allow private airports to be built in the Ag-80 zone. This allows the existing airports and landing fields to be in compliance with the zoning ordinance and no longer makes them non-conforming uses. Therefore under section 2-4A-3, Principal Designated Uses shall read “Airports, private, and registered with the FAA”. Written comments will be received by the Planning & Zoning Administrator until 5:00 p.m. on July 25, 2016. Testimony at the hearing may be limited to five (5) minutes. Services for persons with disabilities may be made available by calling the Planning & Zoning Administrator at 764-2046 three days in advance of the hearing. Dwight H. Butlin

No Change at Craters of the Moon
#2
Washington, D.C. – Idaho Congressman applauds U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke for his announcement today that Craters of the Moon National Monument is no longer under review. Further, the Secretary will recommend that no modifications should be made to the monuments. “I applaud Secretary Zinke for honoring the local consensus Idahoans have created with Craters of the Moon,” said Congressman Simpson. “I worked with a diverse group of stakeholders over ten years ago to ensure Craters reflects Idaho values and can be enjoyed by outdoor enthusiasts. I know Secretary Zinke shares these values and I thank him for his leadership.” In a press release issued by Secretary Zinke he said, “As a former geologist, I realize Craters of the Moon is a living timeline of the geologic history of our land on the Great Rift. Whether it’s hiking up the alien-like lava flows along the Spatter Cones, or just driving through the scenic loop, there’s a lot to see and learn at this historic location.” Craters of the Moon National Monument was under review in accordance with President Trump’s April 26, 2017, executive order. Secretary Zinke’s recommendation comes after review of public comments and conversations with stakeholders.
