The history of property in Salmon, Idaho, is deeply tied to its natural resources and rugged landscape. Initially inhabited by the Lemhi Shoshone people, the region saw an influx of settlers following the 1860s gold rush and the Homestead Act, which spurred the establishment of small farms and mining claims. The arrival of the railroad in 1910 boosted land values and development, shifting focus from mining to agriculture and ranching. Over time, many small homesteads merged into larger ranches, while much of the surrounding land became federally managed, preserving the area's wilderness and supporting its legacy as a center for outdoor recreation and ranching.
