Saltese

An old mining town located near the Idaho border, Saltese was named in honor of a Nez Perce leader from the area. Years ago gold miners, trappers, prospectors and packers stopped here to rest and camp along the hard trail. Numerous trails in the Lolo National Forest originate in and around Saltese. Additional area attractions include Taft—a mining camp once home to 2,000 residents and Lookout Pass—a ski area that receives some of the region's earliest and fluffiest snow.
