When the Woodhead Fire broke out near Cambridge, Id. in early September and moved toward the town of Council, state forestry officials began evaluating and analyzing salvage operations for the timber damaged by the nearly 100,000 acre fire before it was even put out. Logging began on some of the state-owned land impacted by the fire in October. According to state officials, about 20,000 acres of Idaho Endowment Land—where timber sale revenues are used to help fund Idaho schools and other programs—were affected. Timber sales from the fire will generate $2.1 million for Idaho Endowment beneficiaries. Timber salvage operations will continue in the area for roughly two years. The Idaho Department of Lands is working with the Payette National Forest through the Good Neighbor Authority partnership to help expedite and provide more resources for timber salvage and forest restoration projects in the area.
