This weekly column features news stories and event announcements from around the American Redoubt region. (Idaho, Montana, eastern Oregon, eastern Washington, and Wyoming.) Much of the region is also more commonly known as The Inland Northwest. We also mention companies of interest to preppers and survivalists that are located in the American Redoubt region. Today, an update on a fatal grizzly bear attack in Montana. (See the Montana section.)

SurvivalBlog Reader M. wrote to mention:
“A friend of mine who is trying to complete some paperwork for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), was told today that only a Federal employee may enter the BLM field office in Coeur d’Alene, jab or no jab. And [he was also told] that the old office building was going to house some Federal law enforcement group–perhaps an intelligence fusion center. Some journalist should check this out.”
I assume that he was referring to this office:
Coeur d’Alene Field Office
3815 Schreiber Way
Coeur d’Alene, ID 83815
A September, 2020 BLM announcement mentioned:
“The mailing and street address for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Coeur d’Alene District Office and Coeur d’Alene Field Office will be changed from 3815 Schreiber Way, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho 83815, to 3232 West Nursery Road, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho 83815.
The mailing and street address for the BLM Coeur d’Alene District Warehouse will be changed from 3815 Schreiber Way, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho 83815, to 3260 West Nursery Road, Coeur d’Alene, Idaho 83815.”
Among other things, the CDA BLM office manages fuel wood permits, mining claims, and legacy land patents.
