Recently, several folks from the Forest Service took a hike up the Bullion Canyon Pocket. This is within the area we are recommending as a wilderness area on the Fishlake National Forest. Here are some of their pictures, let us know what you think. Pictures are courtesy of Frank Erickson and Mark Muir.
Thanks to Mark Muir, we have some great photos of the Signal Peak Backcountry Area to share with you. Signal Peak is located on Monroe Mountain within the Richfield Ranger District.
Let us know what you think about this area?
Nice shots, Mark!
Yesterday, October 24, we conducted a field trip to the proposed Beehive Peak Backcountry area. Here are some pictures of the trip courtesy of Mark Muir, hydrologist on the Dixie and Fishlake Planning Team. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this area. Please feel free to click the comment button and share them with us here on the blog.
Due to potential weather problems and lack of interest expressed, we will are cancelling the field trip previously planned for October 13 to the Boulder Rim area of the Teasdale RD.
This is an area we are potentially considering for additional backcountry designation (we recieved several comments on our Management Direction Package suggesting this). If you would like details about our thinking, please call, email, or stop by to talk with us. In the near future, we will provide a draft proposal for some of this area on our blog in preparation for a draft plan in January.
Feel free to comment here if you have any thoughts or questions.
