Wyeth and the Forts of Idaho History
Nathaniel J. Wyeth led early Columbia River trading ventures to Fort Hall on the Portneuf river, establishing Fort Williams and a new trading network. His efforts, aided by Rev. Jason Lee, marked Idaho’s first Christian service, while Wyeth’s struggles against the Hudson’s Bay Company and harsh plains life shaped a storied frontier legacy.
