Trails are part of Idaho\u2019s recreation heritage, providing paths to camping, fishing and the wild places that make the Gem State great. We already have one of the most effective motorized trail maintenance programs in the country, supported by user fees. But the needed resources to maintain trails for hiking, biking and horse riding are lacking. And without adequate maintenance and improvements, access to some non-motorized trails will be lost.<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-094734.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7800\" src=\"https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-094734.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"738\" height=\"471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-094734.jpg 738w, https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-094734-300x191.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 738px) 100vw, 738px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4>The stickers are now available in person at:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>REI in Boise<\/li>\n<li>JD\u2019s Bodega in Boise<\/li>\n<li>IDPR HQ Office in Boise<\/li>\n<li>George\u2019s Cycles (both Boise locations)<\/li>\n<li>Hyperspud Sports in Moscow<\/li>\n<li>Idaho Mountain Trading in Idaho Falls<\/li>\n<li>IDPR East Region Office in Idaho Falls<\/li>\n<li>IDPR North Region Office in Coeur d\u2019Alene<\/li>\n<li>Massacre Rocks State Park in American Falls<\/li>\n<li>Winchester Lake State Park in Winchester<\/li>\n<li>Bruneau Dunes State Park in Bruneau<\/li>\n<li>Lake Walcott State Park in Rupert<\/li>\n<li>Hells Gate State Park in Lewiston<\/li>\n<li>Ponderosa State Park in McCall<\/li>\n<li>Heyburn State Park in Plummer<\/li>\n<li>Dworshak State Park in Orofino<\/li>\n<li>Farragut State Park in Athol<\/li>\n<li>Lake Cascade State Park in Cascade<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/idahostateparks.reserveamerica.com\/pos.page?repurchasePrdID=192569\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7801\" src=\"https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-095000.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"903\" height=\"133\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-095000.jpg 903w, https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-095000-300x44.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sbbch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screenshot-2022-01-30-095000-768x113.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 903px) 100vw, 903px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation (IDPR) hosted three (3) summits to discuss issues and solutions pertaining to non-motorized trail recreation in Idaho.
