Idaho County — said to be named for the Steamer Idaho that was launched June 9, 1860, on the Columbia River — spans the Idaho PHOTO BY MOUNTAIN RIVER OUTFITTERS panhandle and borders three states, but imposing geography sets this area apart from the rest of the United States. The famous Lewis and Clark expedition in 1805 found a struggle in the Bitterroot Mountains, near the present-day Montana state line. To the west, the Snake River carved the continent’s deepest river gorge – Hells Canyon – which today separates Idaho County from Washington and Oregon. Within this vast region, the Snake, Salmon and Clearwater rivers and tributaries fostered the Nimi'ipuu, the Nez Perce people, in ancient times. In 1875 Mount Idaho was named the county seat, in 1902 the county seat was moved to Grangeville following a 10-year struggle between Grangeville and Mount Idaho. During the centuries since Lewis and Clark charted their route to Oregon, gold rushes and timber booms have brought modern industries and conveniences to the area. Established in 1864, Idaho County has shepherded a frontier spirit into the 21st Century. Within its boundaries are parts of a dozen national parks, forests and wilderness areas that together total more than 4.5 million acres of federal public land. Together, Idaho County’s eight towns and 18 smaller communities are home to 16,000 people.

    10. Palouse Prairie Section

    10. Palouse Prairie Section Section Description The Palouse Prairie Section, part of the Columbia Plateau Ecoregion, is located along the western border of northern Idaho, extending west into Washington (Fig. 10.1, Fig. 10.2). This section is characterized by dissected loess-covered basalt plains, undulating plateaus, and river breaks. Elevation ranges from 220 to 1,700 m (722 to 5,577 ft). Soils are generally deep, loamy to silty, and have formed in loess, alluvium, or glacial outwash. The lower reaches and confluence of the Snake and Clearwater rivers are major waterbodies. Climate is maritime influenced. Precipitation ranges from 25 to 76 cm (10 to 30 in) annually, falling primarily during the fall, winter, and spring, and winter precipitation falls mostly as snow. Summers are relatively dry. Average annual temperature ranges from 7 to 12 ºC (45 to 54 ºF). The growing season varies with elevation and lasts 100 to 170 days. Population centers within the Idaho portion of the section are Lewiston and Moscow, and small agricultural communities are dispersed throughout. Outdoor recreational opportunities include hunting, angling, hiking, biking, and wildlife viewing. The largest Idaho Palouse Prairie grassland remnant on Gormsen Butte, south of Department of Fish and Moscow, Idaho with cropland surrounding © 2008 Janice Hill Game (IDFG) Wildlife Management Area (WMA) in Idaho, Craig Mountain WMA, is partially located within this section. The deep and highly-productive soils of the Palouse Prairie have made dryland farming the primary land use in this section. Approximately 44% of the land is used for agriculture with most farming operations occurring on private land.
