Walk the Mullan Road one of the Northwest's most significant routes. Take the side road to your left.
From 1858-62, Lt. John Mullan's crew built the Northwest's first engineered highway, connecting Fort Benton with Fort Walla Walla, 625 miles. In Idaho, I-90 closely follows the original road. Mullan's crew spent July 4, 1861 here, carving the date into a white pine — the famous Mullan Tree. The diseased tree — and last Mullan Road Marker — was removed in 1988.
