- When gold was discovered in 1862 in the Boise Basin in what is now the state of Idaho, early prospectors couldn't pick it up fast enough. It created the biggest gold rush since the California Rush in 1849. The town of Idaho City outsized Portland, Oregon in its boom days until the gold veins played out. Today, Idaho City is a fun place to visit with quaint hotels, furnished historic structures and buildings, as well as preserved relics of the past. Plan on spending the better part of a day seeing all there is to see in this beautiful area!
I was there a bit over two years ago and there is just something special about the west (from the east coast and visiting the Sawtooths). I just love "ghost towns". So much history in such a small place. Thanks for letting me revisit!
Stayed a couple days there last year travel trailer great rv spot just out of town cool place to walk and if you are quiet when you walk you can hear the past. Great vid thanks
Your videos are always great watching the histories are always great to be remembered to.
I used to live in elk City Idaho and I loved it I wish I could go back I may still go back
I've been here several times. I live about two hours away.
Your videos are fantastic, please keep up the amazing work….
Just found your channel last night. Great stuff well put together and your voice is broadcast quality. Excellent
University of Idaho conducted fairly extensive archaeological excavations there when I was in grad school in the 1970's. Used to be a great restaraunt just outside town called "The Perilous Puffin".
Nearby hot spings are sick... there is also a nudist colony around lol
