Digger: St. Maries Is Idaho’s Arm Pit

Digger: St. Maries is not urban. Nor a city. Its more of a blip on a map, or as someone once explained to me as a child “the armpit of lake CDA and the Weippe of Benewah County”… a phrase I never got until I actually visited Weippe.

Question: What town would you consider to be the arm pit of Idaho?
