Helicopter landings in wilderness allowed
by Cat Urbigkit, Pinedale Online!
December 23, 2009

The USDA Forest Service has issued a decision memo authorizing the Idaho Fish and Game Department to land helicopters in the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness to support gray wolf capture and collaring.

Although not the first time helicopter use has been authorized to assist in wildlife management, the issue is expected to generate considerable controversy since it involves wolves.

The decision memo was issued Dec. 22, 2009.
