  • Summary

  • Prepare to be dazzled by the tales of Idaho's sparkling soil, where the first logger's accidental discovery of the star garnet launched an era of gemstone fascination, and deer hunters stumbled upon opal riches, earning Spencer the title of Opal Capital of America. Discover the ghost towns preserved by time, where Idaho's mining past still whispers stories of prosperity and decline. With Kayte as our guide, we explore how Idaho's precious stones have left their mark, from the Smithsonian Museum to the hearts of visitors sifting through sluice boxes in search of their own piece of the Gem State's legacy.
