Who are the members of the Owyhee Working Group?
The Wilderness Society, Idaho Conservation League, The Nature Conservancy, Idaho Outfitters and Guides, the United States Air Force, the Sierra Club, the County Soil Conservation Districts, Owyhee Cattleman’s Association, the Owyhee Borderlands Trust, People for the Owyhees, and the Shoshone Paiute Tribes all joined with the Owyhee County Commission to spearhead the effort. As this collaborative process gained momentum, the County Commissioners expanded the Work Group to include the South Idaho Desert Racing Association, Idaho Rivers United and the Owyhee County Farm Bureau. Very recently, the Commissioners further expanded the effort to include the Foundation for North American Wild Sheep and the Idaho Backcountry Horsemen.
