Grand Forks was a town in Shoshone County, Idaho which was destroyed by the Great Fire of 1910. Its site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. [2] [1]

It once flourished as a railway town. The site is little-changed since the town was burned. It was deemed "significant as an area that was not reoccupied or altered after that disaster." [2]

It is located east of Avery, Idaho. [2]
