50 Years of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area: Looking Back, Looking Ahead

50 Years of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area: Looking Back, Looking Ahead In-Person

Join us for a panel conversation on the history and future of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area (SNRA), 756,000 acres of central Idaho that includes the Sawtooth Wilderness, Cecil D. Andrus-White Clouds Wilderness, and the Hemingway-Boulders Wilderness areas. The SNRA was established on August 22, 1972, and we are taking this moment to recognize its impact on our community as we step into the next 50 years.

Panelists will include Kathryn Grohusky, Executive Director of the Sawtooth Society; Lin Gray, Executive Director of the Sawtooth Interpretive & Historical Association; Kirk Flannigan, Area Ranger at the SNRA Headquarters north of Ketchum; and Paul Ries, former SNRA Area Ranger.

This program will be outdoors. Bring a camp chair or blanket and join us! The event will also be livestreamed on Vimeo and available to view later. Click here to watch online.
