47	I72988	CAMPBELL, Kathryn		NATIONAL PARK ADVOCATE Kay started working in Yosemite National Park during the summer of 1949, where she met her husband, John Merriam, who was a climbing ranger. She and John were married on August 14, 1960 in Arcadia, California. They moved to Idaho in 1964, where John was the chair of the Department of Economics at Idaho State University (ISU). As she described, "our attraction to Idaho was based on backpacking for both of us; fishing and climbing for John and having places to ride a horse for me. We very quickly discovered that the amazing beauty of Idaho's mountain ranges, lakes, rivers, wildlife and unique wildflowers and trees were often nicely hidden from highways. The most compelling of all the trails and destinations we explored was the White Clouds." She and John became deeply involved in a grass-roots effort to curtail molybdenum mining in the White Clouds and in 1970 the area was established as a wilderness study area and protected from becoming an open pit mine. After John Merriam died in 1973, Idaho Senator Frank Church asked Kay if she would like to have a mountain named after John in honor of his efforts. She selected the mountain adjacent to Castle Peak in the White Clouds, now known as Merriam Peak. In 2015, Merriam Peak and the surrounding area was officially established as the Boulder-White Cloud Wilderness as part of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area.		5 May 1932	Los Angeles, Los Angeles Co, California, United States	4 Dec 2019	Pocatello, Bannock Co, Idaho, United States
