This is a popular access point to the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness\, and we'll work on the Lochsa Peak Trail. This section is part of the Idaho Centennial Trail\, but instead of thru-hiking\, we'll enjoy the luxuries of camping in an established campsite.  \nWe'll begin at the Wilderness Gateway Trailhead and work up Lochsa Peak as far as we can. The trail travels through a beautiful\, shaded forest with a mix of switchbacks and long\, straight sections. While the climb is fairly steady\, it's mostly shaded. The area receives enough rainfall to support dense undergrowth and plenty of wildflowers where the forest opens up.  Occasional breaks in the trees offer sweeping views of the surrounding area!  \nCheck out this ITA Trail Spotlight about this trail!  \nProject information is subject to change. Crew leaders will communicate via email. Failure to respond to your crew leader may result in being dropped from the project. See our FAQs\, reach out to your crew leader\, or contact ITA staff at trails@idahotrailsassociation.org if you have questions.  \nTrails: Lochsa Peak Trail #220  \nItinerary: This is a weekend project.  Welcome to camp with the crew leader starting Friday night\, and car camping near the trailhead for the entirety of the project.  Working all day on Saturday. Wrapping up any work Sunday morning\, heading home early afternoon.   \nFood Provided by ITA: No    \nGear Packing List: Gear Checklist for Car Camping\, Bring Your Own Food    \nCrew Leader: Clay Jacobson   \nEstimated Drive Time from Closest Town: 1 hour from Kooskia  \nTrail Map:  Click for trail map and elevation profile   \nRefundable deposit: $25  \nWhy do I need to pay a deposit? We've had trouble with people backing out of trips at the last minute which can really affect the productivity of the overall project. By charging a refundable fee\, volunteers are less likely to cancel their reservation. Refunds will not be given to volunteers that do not show up or cancel their reservation. Exceptions will be made for medical reasons or unforeseen circumstances. Volunteers can choose to donate the deposit to ITA. All donations are tax-deductible and will go towards maintaining trails throughout Idaho. If you require assistance in paying for this fee\, please contact us at trails@idahotrailsassociation.org and we will waive the cost.   \nDifficulty Rating  \nHike: 4/5 Strenuous – Closer to a 3.5 but rounded up as the trails get steep fast out of Wilderness Gateway! 2\,500 feet elevation gain over three miles.  Switchbacks\, with some longer straight sections to rest.  Carrying day packs and tools. See the linked map for the elevation profile.  \nProject Work: 3/5 Moderately Strenuous – This trail gets some regular maintenance due to its proximity to a busy Wilderness access point\, so work will depend on conditions after the winter. Saw work and log out expected with some brushing\, some digging/swinging tools for tread work.   \nVolunteer Spots Available: 0 of \nIf there are no volunteer spots available\, click “Sign Up” to get on our waitlist for this project! \nWaitlist Signups: 0 \nSign Up×Sign Up\n\n \n \n Waitlist Sign-up\n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n This is a waitlist signup form not a signup to register for the project.
