Glad you're enjoying them now. Idaho has so much interesting history. It's crazy to me to think that once upon a time, it was the British who controlled Idaho.
Willa-met and your Williamet...2nd mispronounced narrations I've heard of late for the Wil-LAM-et River in Oregon. Forgive my nitpicking for you've done a fine job otherwise, and I've LIKED and SUBSCRIBED! I admired the smooth, stabilized footage from the Jeep going up Big Hill!
Thanks for this very well done piece! What it must have felt like to finally get from Missouri to Fort Hall. This is a very unique and important part of world history that will likely become more popular as time passes. I look forward to watching your other videos.
I enjoy your videos, I appreciate your research to give us the amazing past. Thank you very kindly. Keep up the great work. And your voice is clear as well. Longer videos!!
Cool video! I never found history to inserting until I got out of school and now it fascinates me. Lived near Ft. Hall my entire life and have never been to the replica 😖
@@ZGHistory I thought these old forts were all built of timber but I see the old drawing in your video also shows it built of something like plaster. The California missions from the 1700's are built like this, too. There must have been a sizable crew sent to do the original construction.
I remember my grandfather took all of us grandkids from ghosts town to ghost town and some of the old calvary forts. The deep oil smells in the wood were interesting and ghost towns set up like museums where the coolest ones. The other ones that had caretakers didn't do much to keep them from falling into the ground.
Soda Springs also has a pioneer cemetery. It's said a complete wagon was buried there. The fort shown in the video is located in Pocatello. The actual fort was much further north.
Great question. I'm not sure where the diary is housed today, it could well be in the archives of Oregon or another state, but my source was from the info board found at the top of Big Hill.
Lot of nonsense here. Ft Hall was located in the bank of the Snake river, a little upstream of where the Portneuf River flowed into the Snake . The true site is currently under the waters of the American Falls reservoir, probably 20 miles or more from the replica at Pocatello.
I'm not sure you watched the video as I do recall stating the original Fort Hall was north of the replica in what is now res land. If I remember my research correctly, the actual site of the fort is known and it is not under American Falls reservoir but access to the site is strictly controlled by the Shoshone.
