Idaho Route 12

We will be driving from Lewiston, ID to Missoula, MT. The shortest route is Hwy 12. Is this a good route, or is it better to take Hwy 95 up to I95? GMC 2500HD 6.0 with 25 foot TT. Thanks!

  • Gorgeous route! I have traveled it with my 1/2 ton towing a trailer. I would recommend it.
    The only problem you will have is keeping your eyes on the road and not on the scenery.

  • It is a very scenic route, it follows a while water river quite aways. It does have some grades but I don't recall them as being extreme. The road itself is fine.

    You'll likely see kayakers in the river and bicyclists on the road.
