The city of Boise is located on the Boise River and is the capital of Idaho. Also known as the Treasure Valley, the Boise Metropolitan Area is home to 40 percent of Idaho's residents. It features a rise of mountains to the northeast known as The Foothills, and the Owyhee Mountains lie to the southeast. The area was originally settled due to its rich gold mines, and today it is a popular skiing destination.
