Editor's Corner #6

Happy Wednesday, readers! This week’s edition features a number of stories that talk about responsible camping and outdoor recreation habits. Idaho is covered with some of the most beautiful, accessible, vast, and least regulated public lands in the country. I want to encourage each of you to take the opportunity to explore new parts of our state this summer. As the weather gets warmer, look online, in books, or wherever you like to look to discover a new place to go make memories. When you’re out exploring, take photos and share them with us! Be sure to explore responsibly and not leave trash. It gets said a lot, but it cannot be overstated. As you’re out and about, have and show pride in our Gem State. I had the opportunity to explore more of Idaho this past weekend (see photo below) and I strongly recommend doing the same whenever possible. We are blessed to be where we are, and it’s our responsibility to protect and respect our lands.
