I'd have to guess Ada.

In what year did the largest wildfire in US history ravage Idaho?
What forest ranger (I believe a ranger) was famous for saving (mosst of) his fire crew by holding them at gunpoint in an old mine as the fire raged outside (hint, firefighting tool used today bears his name), and where did this happen?

I thought Sage meant Residential.............
The Hatch House
In 1872, Lorenzo Hill Hatch built his elegant stone house on one of Franklin's largest lots on Main Street, across from the city square. Hatch was the town's temporal and spiritual leader from 1863 to 1875. He was the second Mormon bishop and the first mayor of Franklin. He was also the first Mormon legislator in Idaho.
The stone Greek Revival style of the house was popular in Utah in the 1870s and the structure was occupied by descendants of Bishop Hatch until the 1940s. It was acquired by the Historical Society in 1979.When ownership of the house was assumed by the State of Idaho, the ground floor had been completely gutted by the previous owner. Extensive modifications had been made to the ground floor, which was raised approximately seven inches, and all interior walls were removed. The house is still in that condition.
The second story survives with little modification and could be restored to an 1870-80s appearance in the future. A 1910 addition, made of a hard yellow brick, housed a new kitchen and pantry, later altered to a bathroom. This section of the house has been altered by the previous owner.
Guess we will have to wait for Sage to respond!!
