Cougar Bay to Turnbull |
This Wild Lifeline is an important wildlife migration corridor that stretches from Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge, through the Dishman Hills, across Mica and Blossom Peaks and down to the shores of Lake Coeur d'Alene at Cougar Bay. INLT has helped protect over 2,200 acres in this Wild Lifeline corridor.

Corder easement assures bird habitat will be protected |
237 acres near Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge
Last fall, some 70 birdwatchers from Washington and Idaho “flocked” to Craig and Judy Corder’s property near Cheney to view the rare presence of a northern hawk owl. “This owl lives year-round in Canada and Alaska and only rarely appears in Washington,” says Jeanne Dammarell. “The combination of Ponderosa forest and open meadows dotted with wetlands seems to create the perfect habitat for a wide variety of birds throughout the seasons. The Corders have been generous to share their finds with other birders.”
Craig and Judy Corder protected this land with a conservation easement. Click here to read more.
