Craigmont is a city in the northwest United States in Lewis County, Idaho. Located on the Camas Prairie in north central Idaho, it is within the Nez Perce Indian Reservation.[2] The population was 501 at the 2010 census, down from 556 in 2000.

History

The city is named for Colonel William Craig (1809–69),[3] a mountain man who had a Nez Perce wife. He settled at Lapwai near his father-in-law Hin-mah-tute-ke-kaikt or James in 1840 when he gave up being a fur trapper due to the collapse of the market for beaver.[4][5][6][7]

The Nez Perce Reservation was opened to white settlement {{Years or months ago|1895}} in 1895,[8][9][10][11] and a town named "Chicago," a mile west of the current Craigmont, was founded in 1898. In response to not getting their mail from the post office, it was renamed "Ilo" four years later, after Ilo Leggett, daughter of town founder and merchant W.O. Leggett. A fire burnt the town in 1904 and shortly thereafter the Camas Prairie Railroad bypassed the town and started a settlement, platted by Lewiston financier John P. Vollmer, on the northeast side of the railroad tracks, and he named it "Vollmer." Ilo responded and moved its community to the southwest side of the tracks, adjacent to Vollmer. After a decade-long feud and the consolidation of the school districts, the communities merged in 1920 to become Craigmont.[3][12][13]

Transportation

Railroad

Four miles (7 km) south of the city is Lawyers Creek Canyon, with large railroad trestles[19] of the Camas Prairie Railroad, whose second subdivision arrived on the Camas Prairie in 1908 and extended to Grangeville the following year. The largest is the massive century-old steel trestle, {{convert|1488|ft}} in length and its track {{convert|287|ft}} above the creek.[20] After several ownership changes since 1998, the line from Spalding is now operated by BG&CM Railroad and terminates in Cottonwood. Passenger service on the Camas Prairie ended in 1955.[21] Lawyers Canyon is named after Chief Lawyer (1801–76) of the Nez Perce, nicknamed for his skill in dealing with the encroaching whites; he is buried in Kamiah.[22]

Highways

  • - US 95 - to Lewiston, Moscow (north) and Grangeville, Boise (via ) (south)
  • - SH-62 - to Nezperce (east)

Northbound U.S. Route 95 was formerly routed westward through Craigmont as Main Street, then resumed westward toward Winchester. The highway was re-routed in 1991 and now bypasses Craigmont on its south side. Southbound, the new route between Craigmont and Ferdinand stays out of the canyon, crossing it on a {{convert|919|ft|adj=on}} bridge ([https://web.archive.org/web/20090615055404/http://itd.idaho.gov/bridge/gallery/ITDBridgePhoto/Lawyer%27s%20Canyon%20Bridge%201.jpg photo]) which opened in October 1991[23] and passes over the site of the previous {{convert|82|ft|adj=on}} bridge, built in 1948.[24][25] After the bridge, the southbound highway passes to the east of Ferdinand, a new routing completed in 1993.[26][27]

Eastbound from Craigmont, State Highway 62 connects to Nezperce, the county seat.
