Lemhi County is rich in heritage and natural beauty. It is comprised of several communities such as Salmon, Leadore, North Fork, Gibbonsville, Shoup, and Lemhi Idaho. The county also consists of several ghost towns for visitors to explore. The county has been shaped through the years by the history that has ran through it such as Sacajawea, the Lewis & Clark Expedition, and the Gilmore & Pittsburgh Railroad. Ranching and mining have also impacted our county and assisted in creating a rural atmosphere. Furthermore, our county provides several family activities whether you are looking for the excitement of whitewater rafting or prefer a relaxing horseback ride we have it all as well as winter sports.
