( Marker can be reached from Hunt Road, 0.2 miles east of County Road S1400E, on the left when traveling east.)

Idaho's name is derived from the Native American word "Ee-da-ho" which means "Gem of the Mountains." This name was suggested by a local lobbyist named George M. Willing, and it was officially adopted as the state's name in 1863.
