Smokey and Royal fires are controled, those fires are still burning. The Forest Service will periodically monitor those fires until a season-ending weather event.

Ketchum-Featherville Road Closed Due to a strong rainstorm that went through the area on August 26th, Forest Road #227, commonly known as the ‘Featherville - Ketchum Road’ on the Fairfield Ranger District was washed out approximately 14 miles east of Featherville, one mile east of Deadwood Creek. The road is impassable and prevents travel between Big Smoky and Featherville. While vehicles can drive up to the closure near the washout, there is limited room to turn around. Trailers or other long vehicles must turn around at Boardman Creek on the east side of the washout or on Skeleton Creek on the west side of the washout. Signs have been posted in both these locations. The day after the storm, on August 27th, the Camas County Sheriff and Fairfield Ranger District employees worked together to rescue two men, two women, a child, and multiple dogs that were stranded in the South Fork Boise River where the river had flooded the road. No one was injured and everyone was transported to safety. Two trucks were also towed out of the river. There are still two recreational trailers and an UTV in the South Fork Boise River. Plans are being made to tow these out. This is the second year in a row that Road #227 has been washed out. Last year, a severe rain storm caused debris slides just one mile upstream of this year’s wash out. While repairs in November of 2014 allowed the road to be re-opened, it is now apparent that a long-term fix to the road in this area is needed. The debris flows are primarily from areas burned in the 2013 Kelley Fire, which burned 17,300 acres. Although the Forest Service was quick restore wildlife habitat, repair trails, and stabilize slopes, those areas will con-tinue to be unstable until vegetation has a few growing seasons. Because of the continued vulnerability of the road to intense rainstorms and/or spring run off, Road #227 will not re-open before winter.

••The Best Food is made by a Friend!Tee Hurd

Yesterday, during work, I passed eight million, two hundred thousand, nine hundred

and sixty-eight dollars. I know you are saying that I’ve probably lost my rocks. But being truthful, that’s exactly what I was thinking about... rocks. I realize that a rock is a consolidated or unconsolidated solid mineral matter. Yet, people have traveled thousands of miles just looking for rocks. I think some of it has to do with color, for instance, gold, silver or copper. These people didn’t even care if they only obtained pieces of these colored rocks. Others have gone to great liberties to find the hardest rocks that they can. These rocks, known as diamonds are for a ring’s pretty or a machine’s cutting abilities. Some rocks burn. The burnable rocks are called coal, where as the rocks called fire opals don’t burn. Rocks give rivers a guideline in which to run. A bed is even provided under a river so it may sleep and still move. Rocks give trees some-thing to hang onto so the wind doesn’t blow them to the moon. Speaking of the moon, the lunar rocks were the rewards of many trophy hunters trying to get them. That includes countries like the Soviet Union,Japan and the United States. These countries, and 9 score more, share the same rock- Earth- the third rock from the Sun. Every time I look at a highway or roadway, I see all the rocks that are broken into pieces. Rocks are named for their identification, from seashells to granite. Even a ‘rock’ group made of smaller pieces is identified. I believe that group is called the “Rolling Stones”. A wrestler fellow calls himself “The Rock”. I think his composition is similar to that of a human. I guess the rock that intrigues me the most is the “Pet Rock”. For you who don’t remember, a salesman named Gary Dahl created the “Pet Rock” in 1975. He felt that dogs, cats, bird and fish were a pain in the neck and they made messes, misbehaved and cost too much money. His company, Rock Bottom Productions, sold pebbles nestled in a little box (like a pet carrier). A rock training manual came with every order. The instructions covered how to properly raise and care for one’s rock. The manual even covered obedience training and a warning on what to do with a pack of wild rocks. To make the rock roll over, it needed a little help from the trainer. So when someone says, “You rock!”, remember of all the rocks out there, you’re it. This is my “Cup of Tee”, selling maps for your special rock or taking an endless drive looking for my perfect rock.

During the l930’s when jobs were not to be had, Norman Leek

spent several summers pan-ning for gold in “them thar hills”. He paid his expenses,

plus made about the same as he would have made had he been able to find a job. One fall he had his horses packed. It was threatening snow. It was time to get out for the winter. He noticed a hole in the bank about 30 feet off the creek. Upon an in-vestigation he found a cave. In the cave was some Spanish armor, and swords, and a helmet. He made a mental note of where the cave was. It was now snowing pretty heavy and he had a long way to go. If he didn’t leave now he would never get out. He made it out and spent the next 3 summers searching for that cave, but was never able to find it.
