Ice production on Nurss farm in Grangeville Idaho, about 1885 to 1915.
"History of North Idaho.." Western Historical Publishing 1903 contains the following: "Albert F. Nurss is the well known ice man of Grangeville, who also owns a good farm which is the spot on which Howard erected headquarters in 1877 and a part of the edifice is used by Mr Nurss as a residence..."
In later years there were ice skating and sledding events, held on Grandfather Nurss' property in Grangeville. In the Spring and Fall there were picnics and parties on the farm near Nurss Orchard.
