| Description |
Looking in entrance to Taft Tunnel on the Trail Of The Hiawatha. It's amazing how popular this trail is, even though it basically doesn't go anywhere. It's fun, but so are other trails. Hardly anyone lives near the Hiawatha, but they flock to it for miles. They come from Seattle, Spokane, Missoula, with bikes strapped to their car top carriers. Bikes can also be rented at Lookout Mountain Ski Area. People pay the $8 fee. This trail charges money. I visited in 2005. Parking lot, on Montana side of Taft Tunnel, was large. Almost looked like "parking at the mall." It was Labor Day Weekend and I heard that close to 600 riders were passing through. Advertising. Lots of folks want to say they "rode the Hiawatha." Other trails offer similar sights, but not as concentrated. In 15 miles, there are 9 tunnels, 7 high trestles, waterfalls and interpretive signs. It's a destination. Also one can make it an all downhill ride. Other trails could market themselves more. One can marvel at the draw of the Hiawatha, so far from urban centers. Web sites proclaim it's between two major airports, Spokane, WA. and Missoula, MT. |
