Buried Treasure Legends Spur Idaho Gold Field Tales
In a sprawling northern Idaho and southern Idaho lore, legends of buried gold from swashbuckling era bandits recount sightings of treasure across routes near the Boine River, McCammon, and Jefferson County. Accounts detail stages halted for loot, maps tied to old robberies, and pursuit by vigilantes, with tales of $80,000 to $150,000 prizes and maps passing through generations.
