Historical Note
The city of Hope was a stopping point along the railroad, but in 1890, the Northern Pacific moved its division point west from Montana to the shores of Lakes Pend Oreille. Hope was incorporated on July 17, 1891. Hope was a busy port in its early days. Steamboats crossed the lake carrying supplies and mail to mining sites around the shore before roads were built. The boats were used to carry supplies up the Clark Fork River to Cabinet Gorge while the railroad was being constructed. This development helps the creation of timber companies, like the Hope Lumber Manufacturing Company.
