Hells Canyon Scenic Byway
Salt Creek Summit, OR

In summer this is a hiking trailhead area; in winter, it's the end of the paved road and the entrance to a snowy playground. Ahead are Lick Creek Campground and Guard Station, listed on the National Historic Register, and Ollokot Campground, a site historically used by the Nez Perce Tribe and named after Young Chief Joseph's brother. Side trips off this segment include: (1) Hells Canyon Overlook, at milepost 29 for expansive views of canyon country and (2) Snake River Segment, at the junction with Highway 86, to enjoy the riverside campgrounds and the chance to fish, boat and raft the Snake River.
