Historic Wallace Idaho

The historic mining town of Wallace (population 784) is nestled beneath Interstate 90, halfway between two ski and recreation areas in northern Idaho's beautiful Silver Valley. The town has long been famous as the "Silver Capital of the World" with 1.2 billion ounces of silver produced in Shoshone county since 1884. Silver mining is still a big part of our economy, but today it is carried out in total harmony with a pristine mountain environment that attracts outdoor recreation enthusiasts from around the world. Some folks come for the deep powder at the two ski areas, or the variety of bicycle trails, or the solitude of alpine lakes, but all agree, this is the place to play. And for us lucky ones, this is a great place to live.

Wallace is also known for the fact that every downtown building is on the National Register of Historic Places... which is why the government finally had to go over us instead of through us in order to complete the Interstate Highway system in 1991. Now the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes paved bike path is directly under Interstate 90 as it passes above Wallace, following the famous South Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River through the narrow Silver Valley: the only place on earth where more than a billion ounces of silver were mined in 100 years.

The tours continue by looking at various runs on the mountain(s) from all sides... as they were a couple of summers ago. The Lookout Pass tour also looks down at the eight alpine lakes that face the ski area from the south.

Notice that taken together, these seven trails make up a 185 mile route that promises to gain worldwide attention for the variety of scenery and topography that it encompasses. With that in mind, the Friends of the Coeur d'Alene Trails presents this amazing loop to the world as the 300K Bitterroot Loop. A variety of other bike routes documented with maps, elevation charts, and milepost descriptions are available from the Friends website, as well as a form to request copies of their popular Recreational Trails of the Idaho Panhandle map and brochure, now in it's ELEVENTH edition. They printed 15,000 copies in May 2016 featuring their new Wallace store front on the back panel, and 28 hospitality and recreation providers within.

With Silver Mountain and Lookout Pass Ski and Recreation Areas a dozen Interstate miles away in each direction, the area around Wallace is a full-season mountain recreation paradise. Winter embraces alpine and cross-country skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling and snowshoeing. Fishing, mountain and road biking, mountain climbing, hiking and backpacking, river rafting and kayaking, golf, and motorized exploration on two or four wheels occupy outdoor recreation enthusiasts from spring to fall. Bow, rifle and muzzleloader hunting for deer and elk is naturally popular each fall. Moose tags are awarded by lottery to Idaho residents who then have one chance per lifetime to harvest the huge game. Black bears may be hunted during the fall and spring, while mountain lions are fair game September through March. New in 2012, two zipline tours high above Wallace combine adventure with spectacular scenery. Open May thru September, these are the only ziplines on I-90.

  • In April 2008, the New York Times compared the current mining and tourism industries in the Silver Valley with an emphasis on Wallace culture: In High Prices, Moribund Mines Find a Silver Bullet. Closing line: "Wallace is the damnedest town," he said. "Wallace never gave up the mining dream."

Dante's Peak movie banner During the summer of 1996, Wallace was the location of the spectacular volcano disaster movie Dante's Peak, starring Pierce Brosnan and Linda Hamilton. Fourteen years after the mayor of Dante's Peak (Linda Hamilton) accepted an award for the "Second Best Small Town In America," we accepted an award from the American Planning Association for the "(Third) Best Street in America" at the same location: the intersection of Sixth and Bank Streets. ...

Click to see who won 100 Troy ounces of these 0.999 fine silver Centennial rounds at 2010 Lead Creek Derby After a fun day spent hiking, fishing, rafting, mountain biking, motor biking, 4-wheeling, fishing, hunting, and/or picture taking somewhere in the vast North Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River Basin, visit the ever-expanding and very historic Sprag Pole Museum in Murray Idaho, just 24 miles from Wallace over Dobson Pass. Murray (pop. ~100) was the central city of what was the last great gold mining stampede in the Lower 48 (1883-1885), and became the Cradle City of the Coeur d'Alene Mining District. This district, now centered in the Silver Valley, has been producing silver, gold, lead, zinc and copper continuously since 1884. Have a good meal and a learning experience at the same time.

From 1884 through 2015, the Silver Valley produced 1.243 BILLION OUNCES OF SILVER, as well as gold, lead, zinc, copper and antimony. In 132 years, the Coeur d'Alene Mining District has produced metals valued at $7,443,975,000. In 2015 alone, the district produced metals valued at $139,166,000. Unfortunately, national metal prices have dramatically decreased while local production costs and repairs have increased, leading once again to a depressed, but improving, Silver Valley metals market. 2015 silver production was up 25% from 2013, but 8% less than 2014. While the table does not show gold, copper and antimony production, their value each year is reflected under Total. Remarkedly, 8000 Troy ounces of GOLD were produced in 2015. This information is provided by the Wallace District Mining Museum. Be sure to visit them when you are next in town!
