    Description

    THIS AIRSTRIP IS CLOSED AND IS LISTED FOR HISTORICAL AND EMERGENCY PURPOSES ONLY!

    History:
    In 1954, the Idaho Department of Aeronautics built an airstrip on land owned by the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) along the Cascade Reservoir. A legal dispute regarding an overlying agricultural easement held by a private landowner closed the airstrip to public use in 1970. The land is now under new ownership. The Division of Aeronautics has been working with the BOR to re-open the airstrip for recreational purposes. The Board will be asked to approve proceeding with this recommendation. That involves resolving the payment issue for the needed National Environmental Policy Act and Environmental Assessment requirements, and then applying to the BOR for a long-term permit to open and manage the Cascade Reservoir airstrip. The airstrip would be operated under ITD’s management and would be included in ITD’s recreational airstrip system.

    • Warm Springs Trail- Ridaho Grit3 Route

      Warm Springs Trail- Ridaho Grit3 Route

      The Warm Springs Trail is one of the premier trails on the Lowman Ranger District.

      The trail is noteworthy as part of the larger loop opportunity for motorcyclists and a one-way trail from Bull Trout to Bonneville for mountain bikers.

      From the trailhead near Bull Trout Lake Campground, the trail follows undulating terrain through lodgepole pine forests for over 2 miles.

      It then descends steeply into Deadman Canyon and crosses Deadman Creek multiple times in the next several miles; this section of the trail is the most difficult to negotiate.

      At the bottom of Deadman Canyon, the trail follows Warm Springs Creek through a fairly wide drainage and crosses the creek on a large bridge about halfway down the canyon. This section of trail has both short climbs and descents.

      There is a significant climb of just over 2 miles as you leave the canyon bottom which turns into a narrow rocky gorge.

      As the trail climbs, it provides nice views of the creek in the gorge below. The trail then intersects with the Link Trail.

      Turn left for the final downhill stretch to the trailhead at the Warm Spring Airstrip.

      A popular motorcycle loop combines this trail with the Kirkham Ridge and Link Trails. All trails in this loop require advanced motorcycle riding skills.

      The preferred mountain bike route is from the northern trailhead to the southern trailhead. Mountain bikers should be prepared for a strenuous ride when attempting this trail.

      Although it appears to be mostly downhill, there are plenty of uphill sections that require significant effort.

      Additionally, most of the riding is on single track which requires advance bike handling skills. Hikers will find that the first few miles of trail from either trailhead provide nice out and back hiking opportunities.

      A 2+ mile hike from the south trailhead provides spectacular views of a narrow gorge at the end of Warm Springs Creek.
