WHAT IS THIS AREA CALLED THE PALOUSE
The Palouse is depicted in the book The Most Beautiful Place in the World, Impressions of 10 Master Photographers edited by Jay Maisel, as the “Louvre of Farmlands.” There was also a National Geographic Magazine cover story called “A Paradise called the Palouse,” that featured our area. The word Palouse may have been given to the area by French fur trappers describing the rolling hills as a grassy (pelouse) lawn.
