Idaho - Environmental groups, led by the Idaho Conservation League, have filed suit in federal court challenging the Forest Service's approval of the Travel Management Plan the Salmon-Challis National Forest.  It appears that groups are angry that the Forest Service ignored their satellite photos that they claim show additional miles of roads and trails.  Most recently, however, a court in Minnesota rejected a similar challenge to the Superior National Forest Plan, deferring instead to the agency's interpretation of its road and trail data.  You can read more at Courthouse News Service and view the Complaint here.
