THE OLD TOLL ROAD
..to Idaho City crossed the bridge from Boise through the lowest point you can see in the skyline across the valley.
Climbing the More's Creek canyon wall, it crossed this highway about here and swung north. The road was built and stage service began in 1864 when Idaho City was the largest town in the Pacific Northwest. Even though the road was shorter than today's highway, it was a long, hard day's trip from Boise to Idaho City. A stage from this run is in the State Museum in Boise.
