Lemhi County Recreation Lease

It all started when…

Lemhi County signed a lease for 340 acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land in 1990. With a vague description of uses and little oversight the lease area provided recreation area on BLM managed properties for Radio Controlled Aircraft, Moto-cross track and a Go-cart Track.

Since 2019 the lease has been expired for 8 years and the BLM desires to renew the lease. To do that the S/C Trails Group has agreed to assist Lemhi County in engaging the public to provide input to this much used facility.

Now as local and regional advocates rally around this project we hope to renew the original lease and then begin work on creating a master plan for an expanded version the area that will include the Moto X track as well as an additional XC opportunity. In March of 2019, Youth Employment Program (YEP) began meeting with a group of eight local youth who use the facility and are engaging in working with the county and BLM to build said master plan.
