Updates for the Godde/Kroetch Access Program

Idaho Fish and Game's access agreement with the Godde Family and Kroetch Land and Timber Company typically opens this property to permitted public access on August 30 for archery deer and elk season. Due to current fire conditions, this opening is delayed indefinitely until landowners are comfortable allowing public access.

This applies even if you hold a 2026 permit listing August 30 as your entry date - that date is no longer valid. No one may enter the property, permit or not, until a new date is set. Anyone entering before then will be trespassing.

Please respect the landowners' concerns and check this page for updates.
