Getting there
What the agency says about the road in. For a long rig this is often the binding constraint — a site that fits is no use behind four miles of shelf road — and none of it appears in the campsite data.
- High clearance or 4WD advised
All roads from this point are gravel or dirt and a vehicle with high clearance is suggested.
quoted from the driving directions - Narrow or single-lane road
Access to the lookout is via the Lolo Motorway, a primitive, single-lane road constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the early 1930s.
