Good morning, Coeur d'Alene.

Idaho Fish and Game said two elk were illegally shot and partially stripped near the visitor center at Farragut State Park around Friday or Saturday less than 0.5 miles from State Highway 54, and the agency urges anyone with information to contact the Citizens Against Poaching hotline at 1-800-632-5999.

Today, forest service officials are assessing damaged areas in Kootenai National Forest after recent windstorms left many trees down, using aerial surveys to guide public safety and timber salvage efforts.

They advise caution on roads and trails that remain hazardous — washed-out and obstructed by fallen trees.

The Coeur d'Alene reentry program, which helped about 200 people change negative behaviors, will close its doors at the end of April after its ($58,100/month) funding could not be renewed due to state budget cuts, and team members are preparing for new roles.

Mike Hogue (64), a longtime Bloomsday runner, will race downtown this year after training on an elliptical to ease leg pain, and he hopes to finish in less than an hour while enjoying an energetic crowd, having begun running as a teen and holding the race as a cherished tradition.
