About Lewiston Hill and the Lewis-Clark Valley
Lewiston Hill is one of the most recognizable highway grades in Idaho. The route climbs steeply from Lewiston and the Lewis-Clark Valley onto the rolling hills of the Palouse, creating one of the state’s most dramatic elevation transitions.
Lewiston is Idaho’s only seaport and sits at the confluence of the Snake and Clearwater Rivers. The city serves as a major transportation, agricultural, and commercial center for north-central Idaho and southeastern Washington.
US Highway 95 plays a critical role in connecting Lewiston with Moscow, the University of Idaho, and communities farther north. The route supports freight transportation, tourism, agriculture, education, and daily commuter traffic throughout the year.
Because of the elevation difference between the valley floor and the hilltop, weather conditions can vary considerably. Fog, snow, freezing rain, and strong winds can occasionally affect travel, making live webcam views especially valuable for motorists.
The Lewiston Hill POE Webcam provides travelers with a valuable real-time look at roadway and weather conditions while showcasing one of Idaho’s most important transportation corridors.
