ABOUT ALTURAS COUNTY:

Alturas County was a county in Idaho Territory and later the state of Idaho from 
1864 to 1895.  It covered an area larger than the states of Maryland, New Jersey, 
and Delaware combined.  Most present-day southern Idaho counties were created at 
least in part from the original Alturas County area.  The name Alturas comes from 
a Spanish word for "mountain summits" or "mountainous heights."

Alturas County was created by the Idaho Territorial Legislature in February 1864. 
In 1889, the Idaho Territorial Legislature created Elmore County and Logan County 
from parts of Alturas County. 

On March 5, 1895, the Idaho Legislature combined Alturas and Logan Counties into a 
new county called Blaine, and Alturas County disappeared from the Idaho map.
