    http://www.pbs.org/idahoportrait/adventures/followlc.html
    Lewis and Clark's journey across Idaho in September, 1805 was the most difficult part of their entire transcontinental expedition. As they crossed the Bitterroot Mountains, the Corps of Discovery encountered an early snow, downed timber and found little to eat. By the time they emerged from the mountains eleven days later, the men were wet, cold, and starving. Luckily, they encountered friendly Nez Perce Indians who fed the expedition. Despite the hardship, Meriwether Lewis wrote of what would become Idaho, "It is a beautiful, fertile and picturesque country."
    Idaho's geography also dashed the explorers' hope of finding an all-water route to the Pacific. After crossing the Lemhi Pass, they found what the Indians called "Big Fish Water." On the banks of what is now known as the Salmon River, William Clark realized it would be suicide to try to take canoes through the rapids of what is now called the River of No Return. In his journal, Clark wrote "the river is almost one continued rapid, the passage with canoes is entirely impossible."
    Today, much is the same as when Lewis and Clark first set foot in Idaho. The Salmon River, which dashed their hopes of finding a water route to the Pacific, remains the longest undammed river in the lower 48 states. The vistas, first glimpsed in 1805, are now part of the largest block of wilderness outside of Alaska.

The seal pictures a man (a miner carrying a pick and wielding a shovel) and a woman (carrying the scales of justice, symbolizing liberty and justice), the motto "ESTO PERPETUA" (meaning "May it endure forever"), two full, yellow cornucopias, an elk head atop a shield (picturing a river, settlers, a fir tree, and mountainous land), a sheaf of grain, green grass, and a blue sky. The flag is surrounded by a yellow fringe on three sides. The state seal was designed by Emma Edwards Green.

Ammon Grangeville Montpelier Rigby ... Rexburg IDAHO - Geography One of the Rocky Mt. states in the NW United States. It is bordered by Montana and Wyoming (E), Utah and Nevada (S), Oregon and Washington (W), and the Canadian province of British Columbia (N). Much of Idaho has a primitive and unspoiled natural beauty, with rugged slopes and towering peaks, a vast expanse of timberland, scenic lakes, wild rivers, cascades, and spectacular gorges. From the northern Panhandle, where Idaho is about 45 mi (72 km) wide, the state broadens south of the Bitterroot Range to 310 mi (499 km) in width. The Snake River flows in a great arc across S Idaho; with its tributaries the river has been harnessed to produce hydroelectric power and to reclaim vast areas of dry but fertile land. To the north of the Snake River valley, in central and north central Idaho, are the massive Sawtooth Mts. and the Salmon River Mts., which shelter some of the most magnificent wilderness areas remaining in the United States, including the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness Area and the Idaho Primitive Area. In the central and north central regions and in the Panhandle there are tremendous expanses of national forests covering approximately two fifths of the state and constituting one of the largest gross areas of national forests in the nation. Idaho's jagged granite peaks include Mt. Borah, which reaches an altitude of 12,662 ft (3,859 m). Hells Canyon, which at one point is 7,900 ft (2408 m) below the mountaintops, is the deepest gorge in North America. The state also contains Craters of the Moon National Monument.
