Blood, Trauma, and Biohazard Cleanup in Grace, ID

Grace is a city in Caribou County, Idaho, with a population of 920 at the 2020 census, up slightly from 915 in 2010.

The area of Grace was once inhabited by the Shoshone Indians, and the town itself was established with a post office in 1894.

The Oregon Trail passed within 4 miles of Grace, and unlike nearby historic towns such as Paris and Franklin, Grace was not originally settled by Mormon pioneers, though it has since become a predominantly Mormon-populated town.

The economy in and around Grace has traditionally been driven by agriculture, with potatoes, alfalfa, grain, dairy, and ranching as the main staples.

Grace is one of the northernmost cities along the Wasatch Range, which extends about 160 miles to the south, and the city is located near the center of Gem Valley.

A lava flow some 30,000 years ago flattened the valley floor around Grace and diverted the Bear River from its Pacific drainage into the Great Basin, helping to grow the prehistoric Lake Bonneville, of which the Great Salt Lake is a remnant.

Lake Bonneville reached its farthest north advance about four miles southwest of Grace before it broke through the earthen barrier at Red Rock Pass north of Preston, Idaho.

Grace hosts the Caribou County Fair and Rodeo, which is the county's largest event.

Grace School District #148 oversees three schools in the city: Black Canyon Elementary School, Grace Junior High School, and Grace High School.

Junior Van Noy, a Medal of Honor recipient, is among Grace's notable people, along with basketball player and college and NBA coach Phil Johnson and yodeler Kerry Christensen.
