Did you feel that earthquake?
Things may feel strange in Bonner County right now with pandemics and earthquakes, but inhabitants of the region have been overcoming hardships for a long time.
Now that I have developed my skills at searching the local newspaper archives, I can't help but share some history of earthquakes past. This particular one was centered in Lombard, Montana, and gives you an idea of how earthquakes were viewed in the 1920s.
Take a look at some other reports from the Idaho Geological Survey of other major earthquakes in our history.
