Photo Monitoring Workshops for Rancher in Lost River Valley June 23 and 24th

The University of Idaho Extension will be offering photo monitoring workshops in Leadore June 10th, Challis June 22nd, Mackay on June 23 and Arco on June 24th.  The workshops will be lead by Amanda Gearhart, the University of Idaho Extension Range Specialist.  The workshops include classroom and hands-on field components. Lunch is being sponsored by the Idaho Rangeland Resource Commission.  Those completing the workshop may take advantage of the memorandum of understanding between the Idaho Department of Agriculture and the Bureau of Land Management, to have photo monitoring of existing BLM monitoring sites performed by permittees and entered into the permit records for future use in official evaluation.



Similar additional workshops are being offered throughout the state. The two documents below provide additional insight into the method and value of these records.
