Caribou-Targhee National Forest to revitalize the East Mink Creek Corridor Share This The following is a news release and photo from the U.S. Forest Service. IDAHO FALLS The Caribou-Targhee National Forest is excited to announce the launch of the East Mink Creek Recreation Corridor Revitalization Project located in Bannock County using funding under the Great American Outdoors Act (GAOA). “Each year approximately two million individuals recreate on the Forest.

The Targhee Prescribed Fire project was stuffed through in the closing days of the Trump administration and would undoubtedly have been ruled illegal since the agency attempted to use a categorical exclusion to avoid environmental analysis on the project, which would have burned a million acres of the Targhee portion of the Caribou-Targhee National Forest,
