If you're lucky, you'll 'top up onto the prairie', as the locals say, just about sunset. A rosy glow blankets the little town whose elevation and poulation meet at around 3500. Grangeville sits on Idaho's major north/south highway, U.S. 95, the major route from southern idaho to Washington or Montana.
It's big country. Grangeville sits in one of the country's largest counties, Idaho County -- bigger than the state of New jersey - yet boasting one of the smallest populations, just 15,000 in the entire county.
Idaho County stretches from Oregon to Montana with more than four million trees growing from border to border. You'll find one stop light in Idaho County.
The calendar of events throughout the year in and around Grangeville reads like an outdoorsman's wish list. Each month is proud to present something to do that most calendars lost track of hundred years ago.
Grangeville...where the welcome mat is always out...where you'll find what you're looking for: good motels, RV parking, shopping, some dozen restaurants and take-out deli-type spots. There's even a restaurant at the top of the hill that still offers bottomless coffee for just 25 cents a cup! Now where on earth but Grangeville would you find that??
