Bonneville County, Idaho
.Bonneville County, in the great state of Idaho, was established on February 7, 1911, and named after the prominent military figure, explorer, and fur trapper Benjamin Louis Eulalie de Bonneville. The county was created after the division of Bingham County and encompasses a total area of 1,897 square miles. Idaho Falls serves as the county seat and the region's largest city.
The region was initially inhabited by the Shoshone and Bannock Native American tribes. About a thousand years ago, the Shoshone mainly relied on hunting animals while the Bannock tribe, known as the "buffalo hunters," was semi-nomadic. In the early 19th century, European fur traders and adventurers arrived and began to explore the area, leading to an increase in settlers in the 1860s.
Bonneville County is home to many recreational and scenic vistas, including a portion of the 3,100-mile Continental Divide National Scenic Trail that passes through Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Colorado, and New Mexico. One fun fact about this region is that world-renowned experimental nuclear research facility, Idaho National Laboratory (INL), is located in Bonneville County. Established in 1949, the INL played a crucial role in early nuclear energy research and continues to contribute to nuclear energy innovation. In fact, Idaho Falls became the first city in the world to be lit by atomic power in 1955, thanks to the INL's Experimental Breeder Reactor I (EBR-I).
