During the depression days of the early 1930s the Jordan family--Len Jordan (later governor of Idaho and a United States senator), his wife Grace, and their three small children--moved to an Idaho sheep ranch in the Snake River gorge just below Hell's Canyon, the deepest scratch on the face of North America. "Cut off from the world for months at a time, the Jordans became virtually self-sufficient.
