Ral Labrador, R-Idaho, will help cut the ribbon to celebrate the transfer of 31 acres of Bureau of Land Management land to Idaho County for use as a shooting range. The event is set for 10 a.m. PDT Aug. 12, near Riggins. The public is invited to attend. Also expected to attend are Idaho BLM Director Tim Murphy, Idaho County Commissioner Skip Brandt, Idaho County Sheriff Doug Giddings, Will Runnoe, manager of the BLMs Cottonwood field office and staff from the offices of Sens. Mike Crapo and Jim Risch. The Idaho County Commission will manage the shooting range, in cooperation with law enforcement. The county is working with the Salmon River Gun Club to develop the site, raise funds and hopes to open the range in the near future. Those wishing to attend should park at the state weigh station on U.S. 95 about 1.5 miles north of the Time Zone Bridge, north of Riggins. Due to limited parking, participants will carpool to the range, about a half-mile south of the weigh station. The site was transferred thanks to Rep. Labradors legislation, the Idaho County Shooting Range Land Conveyance Act, whichbecame law in December. For years, Idaho County commissioners sought to acquire the parcel in the Riggins area which has been informally used by sportsmen and women. Cumbersome federal regulations blocked the transfer to Idaho County, even though the Bureau of Land Management supported the idea. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
