This
route covers one of the most beautiful sections of the
Lewis & Clark Trail as it winds through the Rocky Mountains
of Idaho and Montana. As you ride through the Lolo national
forest, look for whitewater rafts on the Locsha and Selway
rivers. You'll also see numerous steaming hot springs flowing
down the hills along the way. Watch out for deer and mountain
goats crossing the highway at random intervals.

You
have all seen the photos of the sign that says "Curves next
67 miles...This is the road! One of the best motorcycle
roads in the country with lots of sweeping curves and a
few tight ones. There is little traffic and excellent road
surfaces. A rock solid 5 … 5 plus is more like it!

Sorry...
The same sign that says Curves ahead says no services
next 75 miles. Make sure you fill up in Kooskia
or in Lolo before entering this highway because there's
nothing but trees, rivers and twisty roads for lots of miles!
At the eastern end of the road, try KT's Hayloft in Lolo,
MT (Intersection of Hwy 12 and Hwy 93) for breakfast!

The
directions for this route are very straightforward. Simply
start in Lewiston,
Idaho on US Highway 12 and take it east all the way
to Missoula, Montana (or in the reverse if you want to start
in Montana). You'll basically be cutting across the entire
width of Idaho.
