 This is the Idaho at St. Maries in 1910. From Steamboats in the Timber: "Fire, too, claimed the big side-wheeler Idaho. This boat had been retired from active use and taken to Blackrock, a bay on the lake where a big apple orchard was located. The hull was used as a sorting and storage shed during apple harvest. In 1915, with a cargo of apples aboard, it burned to the water line and sank in the bay" (pp. 184-185). Click here for next photo.
