Idaho History

From Native American roots to French influences, Idaho’s city names challenge even locals. Can you pronounce all 24 correctly?

Boise once had its very own Holidome—a Holiday Inn turned indoor playground with mini golf, saunas, and a pool.

Some of Idaho’s most intriguing landmarks aren’t in any guidebook but they’re real, and they’re closer than you think.

We’re not surprised that at least one would end up on a list of the hardest to pronounce cities in America.

If you’ve seen them on Google Earth or through a plane window during a flight, you probably have wondered “where did they come from?”

There’s another group of Idaho small towns that just have extremely unfortunate and awkward names.

Some are a little more challenging to identify if you’re not looking at them straight on!

How many of them do you remember?!

People have a wild conspiracy that the Gem State doesn’t actually exist. It does and so do these places.

If we asked you to name an Idaho ghost town, the first one that probably comes to mind is Silver City.
