Harriman Ranch Eyed By Parks
Idaho state planners launch a two year study of Harriman Ranch to assess land wildlife fish and plant life and the impact of public access as the Harrimans plan to gift the property to the state. The plan envisions a day use park with hunting banned fly fishing allowed and education programs for students while funding from a Montana Harriman gift could support a perpetual park fund. Universities will assist with the planning.
