Why Island Park Chooses Anthem
The Internet Provider That Earns Your Business Every Month
Island Park is one of the most geologically extraordinary communities in the United States. The city sits inside the Henry's Fork Caldera — a massive ancient volcanic crater formed by the same deep mantle hotspot that would later create the Yellowstone Caldera just to the northeast. At 6,293 feet above sea level, Island Park is the highest incorporated city in Idaho, and it holds the record for the state's coldest recorded temperature — a bone-chilling -60°F on January 18, 1943. The city itself is a geographic curiosity: never more than 500 feet wide in most places, it stretches for 33 miles along US-20 — earning it recognition as the longest Main Street in the world. Trappers and traders were moving through the area as early as 1810, and the reservoir that anchors the valley today traces its origins to Trude's Ranch, established by A.S. Trude of Chicago on the banks of the Henry's Fork. The city was incorporated in 1947 in a particularly creative act of civic ingenuity — lodge and resort owners along the highway incorporated the narrow strip of businesses specifically to circumvent Idaho liquor laws that prohibited sales outside city limits, making Island Park's founding one of the more colorful in the state's history.
Today Island Park is a four-season outdoor recreation destination and gateway to Yellowstone National Park, drawing snowmobilers, anglers, hikers, and cabin owners from across the region. That recreation economy — including short-term rentals, lodges, and a growing remote-work population drawn by the scenery — puts real demands on internet infrastructure in a location where terrain and elevation make coverage genuinely challenging. Anthem addresses that challenge with two towers: Sawtell Peak and Shotgun Peak, both positioned on prominent high-country elevations to maximize reach across the 33-mile corridor. At speeds up to 100 Mbps, Anthem brings fiber-fed wireless connectivity to a community where CenturyLink's legacy lines, Starlink, and HughesNet have historically been the only options.

Call 208-677-8000.
Anthem's fixed wireless installation is straightforward and typically completed in one visit. A certified Anthem technician installs a small radio on the exterior of your home or building, pointed toward the nearest Anthem tower. The technician then routes a cable from the radio inside your home to either an Anthem managed router, which is included with your plan, or your own router if you prefer to use your existing equipment. The managed router provides built-in Wi-Fi and gives you access to Anthem's parental controls and network management tools from your phone. Most installations are completed in under two hours. Call 208-677-8000 to schedule your installation.
