HWY 12 heads west from Travelers' Rest. It follows a lot of the eastern
portion of the Lolo Trail. Led by Old Toby and his son, the Expedition
headed up Lolo Creek on a well worn Indian trail used by both Salish
and Nez Perce. The creek flows close to the highway a few miles west
of Travelers' Rest. The Corps stuck to the north side just as the
highway does. Top left, the Bitterroot Range rises to the north of
HWY 12 and the trail. Later, the Corps will have to face this challenge.
