Tourist and Recreation Potential: Idaho 'Panhandle' Area
The area comprises the five northernmost countries in Idaho -- Benewah, Bonner, Boundary, Kootenai, and Shoshone -- and is commonly referred to as the Idaho 'Panhandle'. It is largely an area of mountains, forests, lakes, and streams. Its 7,662 square miles are sparsely populated. Coeur d'Alene, on Lake Coeur d'Alene and the County Seat of Kootenai County, is the largest community with a 1960 population of 14,291. Other principal communities include Kellogg (pop. 5,061), Sandpoint (pop. 4,355), Wallace (pop. 2,412), St. Maries (pop. 2,435), Priest River (pop. 1,749), and Bonners Ferry (pop. 1,921). Chief economic activities are lumbering, mining tourism-recreation, and agriculture. The Panhandle area has a number of strong recreation assets ranging from scenic mountain areas to large natural lakes that can be exploited to take advantage of these increasing national demands for outdoor recreation. The Panhandle area is favored with an abundance of water resources which, if properly developed, could give rise to a well balanced regional tourist and recreation complex.
