Derived termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Idaho ( /ˈaɪdəhoʊ/ (help·info)) is a state in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States of America. The state's largest city and capital is Boise. Residents are called "Idahoans." Idaho was admitted to the Union on 3 July 1890 as the 43rd state. Idaho is a mostly mountainous state larger than the whole of New England. It is landlocked, surrounded by the states of Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Montana and the Canadian Province of British Columbia. However, the network of dams and locks on the Columbia River and Snake River make Lewiston, Idaho the furthest inland seaport on the west coast of the continental United States. To residents of the state and regular visitors, Idaho is regarded as a highly outdoors-oriented community. Central Idaho is home to one of North America's oldest ski resorts, Sun Valley, where the world's first chairlift was installed. Snow sports are important keystones of Idaho's identity, with a ski resort adjacent to nearly every urban area. Whitewater rafting and kayaking are among the state's major pastimes. Hell's Canyon and the Salmon River boast some of North America's finest whitewater, with the nearby town of Riggins, ID serving as the state's informal whitewater capital. According to the United States Census Bureau, in 2008 the population for Idaho was estimated to be 1,523,816. The state's postal abbreviation is ID. Idaho's nickname is the Gem State because nearly every known gem has been found there. In addition, Idaho is one of only two places in the world where star garnets can be found (the other is the Himalaya Mountains, in India), and is the only place six pointed star garnets have been found. The state motto is Esto Perpetua (Latin for "Let it be forever"). From Wikipedia under the
GNU Free Documentation License I live in Idaho and I have a hound dog I want to start hunting with? Q. I have a redbone/plott hound mix and I would like to take him hunting and put his instincts to better use than chasing neighborhood cats! Is there anyone living in Idaho who would be willing to help me get started in this sport? Asked by Ryan - Fri Jul 17 21:26:14 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. Hunting with a dog in Idaho has opened up over the last few years again--for bear and cougar, and then you have the more traditional upland/waterfowl use. There is also some raccoon hunting down in the southern parts of Idaho, or at least there was. Had a cousin in Jerome that did raccoon hunts with dogs--I looked at the on-line brochure but didn't see anything but in the fur bearer section,so you need to get more info. You do need to be careful with dogs in the field,some hunters might shoot them, thinking they are running game, so take the time to study all the rules and be careful. If you contact a local F&G office they will have information on dog hunting and some points of contact to help you out.
