Lewiston-Clarkston Area

The Clearwater River joins the Snake River on the border between Lewiston, Idaho, and Clarkston, Washington.

As part of the dam's construction, levees were built along the banks of these two rivers for flood risk management. A system of trails on these levees grew into what the U.S. Depart­ment of Interior later designated the Clearwa­ter and Snake River National Recreation Trail. Almost 20 miles of trails connect area parks, historical sites and natural attractions.

CLEARWATER AND SNAKE RIVER NATIONAL RECREATION TRAIL* connects parks, historic sites, and natural attractions along the Snake and Clearwater rivers. Designated a National Recreation Trail by the Department of Interior in 1988, the 19-mile wheelchair accessible trail is the result of cooperative efforts by Federal, State, County, and City agencies. The trail is one of many facilities constructed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on Lower Granite Lake, which was created by Lower Granite Lock and Dam.

CHIEF LOOKING GLASS PARK,* at the southernmost end of the trail , is located in and operated by the city of Asotin , Washington. A highlight of the park is the Full Gospel Church. Built in 1889, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Buildings. The original white oak pump organ is still in the church. The public is welcome .

LEWISTON LEVEE PARKWAY* is a popular portion of the Clearwater and Snake River National Recreation Trails. Composed of clay and silt surrounded by gravel, the levee forms an impermeable barrier between Lewiston Idaho, and Lower Granite Lake and was one of the first U.S. Army Corps of Engineers levees to receive extensive landscaping as part of the original design. Erosion on the lake side of the levee is prevented by boulders and cobbles called "riprap." Vegetation improves the appearance of the levee and provides habitat for wildlife.

approaching and will be passing on their left. • Whenever you stop for a view, a rest, or to yield, move off

the trail so as to free it for others. • Hikers going uphill are working hard and should be given

the right of way over hikers coming downhill. • Greet people you meet. This makes sure they know you are

there and is polite. • When hiking in a group, hike single file or take no more than

half of the trail width. • When meeting a horse, get off the trail on the downhill side.
