History
4
In 1862, the noted Western scout Mose Milner started Mount Idaho on his gold rush trail. When civic leaders resisted farm efforts to organize a grange there in 1874, Grangeville grew up as a better located town. Although Mount Idaho served as county seat from 1875 to 1902 and had an important Chinese community, Grangeville soon surpassed its older rival, and most of Mount Idaho's early buildings have disappeared.
