Elk City Wagon Road
Elk City Wagon Road
The Elk City Wagon Road closely follows the southern Nez Perce Trail used by Native Americans and later miners. Access from Hwy 13 to the Wagon Road is via Battle Ridge Road in Stites to Clearwater, Sally Ann Road between Stites and Harpster to Clearwater, or from Harpster, all small towns on the South Fork of the Clearwater River. It can be toured as part of the annual summer adventure held in July or as a self-guided tour during the months of June-September, weather permitting. The Elk City Ranger Station, Nez Perce or Clearwater National Forests can provide more information. A brochure may be downloaded at www.fs.fed.us/r1/nezperce/.
TRAVEL CAUTIONS:
Most of this road is still a rutted, narrow, unpaved passage of days gone by. No gas stations or other services are available.
Total distance: 45 miles
Suggested time: 4-6 hours
