General Information about Wallace

Wallace is a historic city in the Panhandle region of the U.S. state of Idaho and the county seat of Shoshone County[1] in the Silver Valley mining district. Wallace sits alongside the South Fork of the Coeur d'Alene River (and Interstate 90) and the town's population was 960 at the 2000 census. Wallace is the principal town of the Coeur d'Alene silver-mining district, which produced more silver than any other mining district in the United States. Burke-Canyon Road runs through historic mining communities many of them now deserted north and eastward toward the Montana border. The area periodically experienced open warfare between miners and mine owners. With silver prices reaching new highs, Wallace and the surrounding Silver Valley area are booming. East of Wallace, the Route of the Hiawatha (rails-to-trails) and the Lookout Pass ski area are popular with locals and tourists.
In 1890, Shoshone County was the most populated county in the new state of Idaho, and Wallace was its largest city and the third largest in the state, with 2000 residents. The elevation is 2728 feet (831 m) above sea level.
