Kellogg is named after a prospector named Noah Kellogg. Legend has it that his donkey wandered off in 1885; Kellogg found the animal at a large outcropping of a galena, which became the site of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan Mines.
Since the mines have closed Kellogg has become a tourist attraction with hiking and skiing galore. Kellogg is home to the world’s longest single-cabin gondola that travels 3.1 miles from the town to the ski lodge at Kellogg Mountain.
