| 説明 | LEWISTON HILL PANORAM No 1Date: Circa 1930sSource Type: PostcardPublisher, Printer, Photographer: Ellis (#1, #372)Postmark: NoneCollection: Steven R. ShookRemark: This is a view of the Old Spiral Highway (U.S. Route 95) located at the north end of Lewiston, Idaho. This ten mile section of highway climbs more than 2,000 vertical feet along Lewiston Hill (elevation 2,756 feet) to the rolling Palouse hills above the city.U.S. Route 95 was later rerouted and the highway scene here is now commonly referred to as the Old Spiral Highway. The moniker is appropriate given that this road is riddled with twists and turns (64 curves). This highway was completed for use in 1917 and was the primary route north toward Moscow, Idaho, till 1977.The 1950s rock-and-roll hit "Hot Rod Lincoln" mentions a race that actually took place on Lewiston Hill.The Old Spiral Highway can still be driven, though it sees little use today due to its challenging route down the Lewiston Hill.Copyright 2016.
