Historical NoteReturn to Top
The Boise-Payette Backcountry Coalition was an organization formed in the late 1980s to provide input on forest and conservation issues in Idaho, specifically in the Boise National Forest and the Payette National Forest. Headed by Erik Fisher and Ralph Hansen, the group provided input about off-road vehicles, non-motorized vehicles, and water quality issues, among others.
