It was a 15-year legislative battle to protect Idaho’s Boulder And White Cloud Mountains.
From Idaho elections to decisions in the oval office, this was a journey of unlikely allies and relentless determination to protect one of the state’s most treasured landscapes.

He joined Idaho Matters to share the inside story and preview his upcoming talk on Wednesday, Aug. 27 at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute in Boise on this historic conservation victory.
