Lolo Motorway 2023
The Lolo Motorway (also known as Forest Road 500) was built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930’s and crosses the Bitterroot Mountains in Idaho roughly following the path Lewis and Clark used in 1805 and 1806 during the Corps of Discovery, as well as the Nee-Me-Poo trail used by the Nez Perce for hundreds of years. We took four days to follow those historic trails across the mountains of Idaho high above the Clearwater River.
