The region was explored by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark in 1805–1806. It was then a part of the
Oregon country, held jointly by the United States and Great Britain. Boundary disputes with Great Britain
were settled by the Oregon Treaty in 1846, and the first permanent U.S. settlement in Idaho was
established by the Mormons at Franklin in 1860.

After gold was discovered at Orofino Creek in 1860, prospectors swarmed into the territory, but they left
little more than a number of ghost towns.

In the 1870s, growing white occupation of Indian lands led to a series of battles between U.S. forces and
the Nez Percé, Bannock, and Sheepeater tribes.

Mining and lumbering have been important for years. Idaho ranks high among the states in silver,
antimony, lead, cobalt, garnet, phosphate rock, vanadium, zinc, and mercury.

Agriculture is a major industry: The state produces about one fourth of the nation's potato crop, as well as
wheat, apples, corn, barley, sugar beets, and hops.

The 1990s saw a remarkable growth in the high technology industries, concentrated in the metropolitan
Boise area.

With the growth of winter sports, tourism now outranks other industries in revenue. Idaho's many streams
and lakes provide fishing, camping, and boating sites. The nation's largest elk herds draw hunters from all
over the world, and the famed Sun Valley resort attracts thousands of visitors to its swimming, golfing, and
skiing facilities. http://
