That is the correct Atlanta, the fires were pretty harsh those years but the area is making a solid comeback.

Good news, I recieved an email today from the mayor of Boise asking me to attend a meeting in September and to submit a letter on my observations working with the mines in Nevada to include in his final report.

If you ever get a chance, come back to this area and fish the headwaters of the Boise or some of the high mountain lakes in the Sawtooth mountain range.

The scenery is awesome and some of the lakes are only an hour hike from the trail head.

The crystal clear water and selective fish of those lakes makes for some challenging fishing, and the hike ensures that there is hardly any fishing pressure....
