In 1863 gold was discovered on Jordan Creek, starting the boom and bust cycle of Silver City. During the peaks of activity in the local mines, the population grew to a few thousand residents with a full range of business services. Most of the mines played out by 1914. Today there are numerous summer homes and one hotel, but no year-long residents. Nine miles “down the road” from Silver City was DeLamar, another mining boom town.

Idaho’s Tourism KEY FINDINGS Industries Idaho’s tourism industry encompasses just over 1,700 businesses with more than 28,000 jobs and a payroll of over $500 million – 5 percent of total jobs and 2.3 percent of total wages. In addition, tourism indirectly supports another 11,600 jobs in other sec- tors of the economy, making tourism’s total economic impact 40,000 jobs. Idaho’s tourism employment declined at a faster rate than employment overall after the recession began. From 2007 to 2010, tourism jobs fell 15 percent, or 4,600, from the 2007 peak of 31,500. Tourism jobs began recovering from the 2010 low point of 26,970 to reach 29,100 in 2013, but still nearly 2,500 below the 2007 peak. Employment across all sectors dropped 8 percent from 2007 to 2010. The number of total jobs increased steadily since 2010 but remains more than 33,000 below the pre- recession peak.

  • Idaho Water Supply Outlook Report April 1, 2019
    Natural Resources Conservation Service Idaho Water Supply Outlook Report April 1, 2019 Owyhee Reservoir in Eastern Oregon near the Idaho Border, March 30, 2019 In 1932, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation completed the Owyhee Dam and the Owyhee Reservoir started filling for the first time. At the time of completion, the Owyhee Dam was the tallest of its kind in the world (417 feet) and served as a prototype for the Colorado River’s Hoover Dam. In the otherwise arid climate of Eastern Oregon and Southwestern Idaho, the reservoir provides critical irrigation water to approximately 118,000 acres of farmland across both states and four separate irrigation districts. The Owyhee River basin is huge, covering ~7,690 square miles in Oregon, Idaho, and Nevada. To put this in perspective, the entire Boise River basin is ~2,200 square miles! April 1 snowpack in the expansive Owyhee River basin is 130% of normal, and the reservoir is 61% full (88% of average), inflows began to increase in March and will continue in April as we transition into Spring. Please see the full report for details on current snowpack and expected water supplies.
