Lolo is near the Montana-Idaho border and Lolo Pass. Located at a historic and contemporary crossroads, Travelers' Rest State Park is a place where visitors can say with certainty that they are walking in the footsteps of Lewis and Clark. The nearby creek was originally called Travelers' Rest Creek because men using the trail found it an ideal spot to stop, rest, hunt and repair their gear before tackling the trip over the pass. The natural hot water springs also helped make it a favorite stop.
