On a recent backpacking trip our peace was violently disturbed by the sound of gunshots ricocheting between the mountain walls. Physically shaking I approached the shooters, a group of young day hikers. I expressed my concern only to receive a lecture that this is N-Idaho and they have the right to shoot anywhere and I don’t have to be concerned as it is safe to shoot across the lake. Several of my kids open carry, but they do so with a sense of responsibility and respect, and target shoot in a designated place. There were camping spots across the lake and climbers were coming down from the mountain, both invisible to the shooters. Bullets can ricochet off the surface of water as well as off rocks and go quite far. At this time of the year there is a high fire alert and bullets can cause sparks that can cause smoldering fires. Besides the actual danger, random shooting around a lake with known campgrounds constitutes a nuisance if nothing else. Like the game warden we met on our way out mentioned, we have the right to use guns but we do not have the right to be stupid.

Many people greatly appreciated the letter by Rachel Castor (Daily Bee, Aug. 24, 2017). Anyone who knows Rachel would agree that she is not radical.

This is an example of the simple mindedness of Heather Scott.

A team of local citizens is considering asking that Scotchman’s Peak be designated as a state park rather than a wilderness area. An open, non-petulant discussion of that alternative idea seems worthwhile. About one year ago, I heard a woman tell Raul Labrador that state agencies do not know how to manage our forests. A series of articles at perc.org which are less than four years old concluded that the state of Idaho managed Idaho forests and recreation areas far more efficiently and less expensively than the U.S. Bureau of Land Management of the U.S. Forest Service. The reasons why should be explored in order to add that benefit to the protection of the Peak and its surroundings.

How do your kids measure up with fitness?

The kids are back in full swing — with school and sporting activities. Some of our youth are going to school — then coming home to sit in front of the television. The lifestyles of today’s youth have undergone enormous changes. Cell phone texting is NOT a sport. Television, computers and video games have replaced many of the physical activities children once enjoyed. So when we discuss our children, we often hear words like ‘obesity’, ‘heart disease’, ‘high blood pressure’ and ‘diabetes’. Back “in the day”, getting a sliver or losing a tooth use to be the only thing a child worried about — why is it that society allows our children to concern themselves with these issues? Why can’t a child just be a child?

We must speak out on refugee relocation

After 35 years in trial practice, I’ve learned that it isn’t what people tell you, it’s what they don’t tell you that counts. Given the turmoil in our country right now, I question whether the Armstrongs and the concerned citizens supporting relocating refugees to Sandpoint have all the facts about the course they advocate. The key issue is why the London-based International Rescue Committee, or “IRC”, selected Northern Idaho and Sandpoint in particular as a target for resettling people with such a controversial background? To understand the situation, we need to look at who is actually behind the agenda. The Armstrongs represented the International Rescue Committee, or “IRC”. Unfortunately, and probably unknown to them, the IRC has a rather disturbing history.

What on earth happened? Why does there have to be a new heaven and a new earth? The answer to that question, and to many more, are found in the pages between those two books.

An open, non-petulant discussion of that alternative idea seems worthwhile. About one year ago, I heard a woman tell Raul Labrador that state agencies do not know how to manage our forests. A series of articles at perc.org which are less than four years old concluded that the state of Idaho managed Idaho forests and recreation areas far more efficiently and less expensively than the U.S, Bureau of Land Managment or the U.S. Forest Service. The reasons why should be explored in order to add that benefit to the protection of the peak and its surroundings.

Captain Richmond earned the Bronze Star for his meritorious service in direct support of combat operations from December 1943 to May 1945 in Italy, France and Germany. Captain Richmond candidly shared memories, photos and other keepsakes. We looked at his Bronze Star and read his citation that conveyed a sense of his heroism: “As Battery Commander, Captain Richmond was responsible for the outstanding accomplishments of his Battery during long periods of continuous combat. His energy and enthusiasm, along with his excellent leadership accounted for the superior record of his unit.”

BONNERS FERRY — “The fastest growing demographic in hunting is actually women,” explained Idaho Fish and Game Senior Conservation Officer Julie Lininger, who has been teaching the Women’s Outdoor Clinic for 12 years. “Women are getting into the outdoor sports.

PL Search & Rescue seeks high-tech edge

PRIEST LAKE — When Priest Lake Search and Rescue started in 2001, its ability to assist local residents and work shoulder-to-shoulder with the sheriff’s office was tied to technologies that few millennials could fathom using regularly. A mere 16 years ago, things like social media, smartphones, wireless internet, and drones were unheard of outside Silicon Valley laboratories. Today, PLSAR founder Mike Nielsen can proudly point to a 100-member strong active force of dedicated volunteers who utilize a radio network on par with the county sheriff’s.

The best goat views? From a distance

With the hiking season well underway, the Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness Goat Ambassador Program is in full swing. The snow has disappeared; the trail to Scotchman Peak is cleared of downed trees and is in great shape. This is also an outstanding year for beargrass — a “mass bloom” occurs once every five to 10 years and this is it! Before the meadows you will encounter amazing mountainsides full of the beautiful flower. The meadows are stunning. And once you break out of the trees onto the rocks you will most likely encounter mountain goats.

With all the false facts floating around about why we need the Scotchman Peaks designated as wilderness I would like to say, why do we need 14,000 acres when the majority of people — I did my own gallop poll, talked to 23 people who have hiked to Scotchman Peak in the last two years — say they go to the trailhead and hike to the peak and then back to their car. Out of the 23 people I have talked about going up only two have stated they went beyond to Scotchman 2. So why not make the 4,000 acres above timberline into wilderness and leave the rest alone so it can be managed for wildlife habitat, fire control, and timber management?

We appreciate the steps that the senator and his staff have taken to ensure that people have an opportunity to express their opinions about the proposal to designate the Scotchman Peaks area as wilderness. Over the years there have been many presentations about this proposal. The plans have been well vetted and the time has come to move forward on this plan.
