Teton forest merger draws opposition
Posted 1/23/13
JACKSON — U.S. Forest Service officials are recommending against merging the management of the Bridger-Teton National Forest in northwestern Wyoming and the Caribou-Targhee National Forest in southeastern Idaho.
Acting Regional Forester Marlene Finley has concurred with the recommendation from the supervisors of both forests who said consolidation wasn’t in the public’s best interests, agency officials said Tuesday.
