Wondering how the state got its name? George Willing alleged Idaho meant 'gem of the mountains' or 'the sun comes from the mountains.” Others said the name came from the Apache word 'ídaahę́,' meaning enemy, or a Nez Perce phrase that translates to 'land of many waters.' Willing eventually copped that he totally made up the word “Idaho.' How about Idaho’s major products? The state is known for its potatoes, but its official nickname is the Gem State. Idaho also supplies the majority of the nation's trout. Find more stuff about Idaho in this word search puzzle!
