The trail may be accessed from numerous
different directions. From east or west off I-90, take the Taft Exit 5 in
Montana (5 miles east from Lookout Pass). From the South through St. Maries and
Avery, from the West through Wallace, or directly from the Lookout Pass parking
lot. From Missoula go west to Taft Exit 5. Directions and maps are available
at Lookout Pass Ski and Recreation Area, the Best Western/Wallace Inn in
Wallace, Idaho, or Sheffy's General Store in Avery, Idaho.
From
Lookout Pass (location of Bike Rentals) or Missoula, Montana go to the
Taft Exit #5 on I-90 and turn south at the bottom of the off ramp. You will
then turn left at the stop sign, go over a small bridge, then just follow the
signs south for 2.5 miles on Rainy Creek Road #506. This will take you to the
East Portal of the St. Paul Pass, or "Taft" Tunnel. Alternatively, you can
follow this road up and over Roland Pass going forward at the top of Roland Pass
and down to the historic town site and trail head of Roland (7 miles from I-90)
which is located just past the West Portal of the St. Paul Pass, or "Taft"
Tunnel.
From
Wallace, Idaho weave your way through town heading South out of the
residential area (you can stop at the Wallace Inn/Best Western for maps or
directions) to the Moon Pass Road #456. Stay on the main road over Moon Pass to
Loop Creek and the Pearson Trail head (about 20 miles from Wallace).
From
the East end of Avery, Idaho head North on Forest Service Road #456 for 9
miles to the Pearson Trail head.
