Idaho County – Woman Skeleton 8.5′ – 9′ In Height

Excavations in the Salmon River Canyon, in order to determine whether, beneath a huge bluff a mile above slate creek, lies a graveyard of a prhistoric race of giants which at one time inhabited what is now Idaho County, is expected to soon be undertaken, perhaps by eastern scientists, following the discovery, in the bluff, of the skeleton of a woman, who was 8 1/2 to nine feet in height. Harry Vincent and Lawrence Tipton, while employed on the North and South Highway, discovered the giant skeleton, as they were excavating material for filling a road.
