couer d’Alene, Idaho
Gem of the Inland Empire
Coeur d’Alene’s story began on the shores of a vast timber and steamboat frontier. In the late 1800s, the city became the vital link between Spokane and the booming mining camps of the Silver Valley. Logs floated across the lake, ore traveled by rail and steamer, and the town grew around the rhythm of industry and exploration.

The Inland Empire Collection brings together the three industries that built our region: railroads, timber, and mining, represented by a simple X of heritage symbols. From the silver veins of the Coeur d’Alene Mountains to the rail lines and mills that fueled Spokane’s rise, this design captures how two cities and their surrounding towns grew side by side. It stands as a tribute to the hardworking roots that shaped the Inland Northwest and the connections that still link us today.
