What's in a Name
"Silver Valley" refers to the mining
communities, 14 in all, tucked neatly in the Coeur d'Alene
Mountains between Fourth of July Pass, just east of Coeur
d'Alene and Lookout Pass on the Idaho/Montana border.
Kellogg is intersected by I-90 and lies just 11 miles west
of Wallace. These two towns are the foundation of a
collection of tough and ready communities that trace their
genesis to the boom days of mining in Idaho.
