July 18, 2013 |
The Bonners Ferry Ranger District will be
conducting a helicopter logging operation on the
Snow Way Stewardship Project near the Roman Nose
recreation area. This operation will cause some
delays on Snow Creek Road #402.
Helicopter operations are scheduled to begin
July 22, 2013. Forest visitors can expect delays
on Snow Creek Road #402 up to thirty minutes.
Snow Creek Road is the most direct road to the
Roman Nose area, but an alternate route is
available by taking Myrtle Creek Road #6333 over
Crooks Pass Road #661 then on to Roman Nose.
There will be signs and a flagger in the area to
warn the public of upcoming delays
Operations include log truck traffic, service
vehicle traffic and helicopter logging. Road
delays are necessary for public safety while the
helicopter flies over and lands on Snow Creek
Road. For more information on road status and
conditions please visit the
Idaho Panhandle National Forest’s Road Status
web page.
Logging operations at this location will
continue until further notice. For more
information please contact the Bonners Ferry
Ranger District at (208) 267-5561. |
