Welcome to Ketchum

Located at the base of Bald Mountain and surrounded by national forests, Ketchum is the ideal place to live, work, and play. Since its founding in 1880, it has alternately been a rich mining district, the nation’s largest sheep-shipping station, home of the first ski chairlift, and a rowdy gambling town. Home to Me.
