Palouse Scenic Byway

Ramble all day on this 208-mile scenic drive that criss-crosses southeastern Washington. Of all byways in the Two Degrees NW region, this is the longest because its network of roads cross each other.

Rolling hills abundant with wheat, pea, lentil, mustard seed and canola crops paint this land in shifting colors each season (early to mid summer is best for bright yellows and deep greens). The Palouse’s hilly farmlands (drive backroads linking Rosalia, Oaksdale, Palouse, Colfax or Tekoa) and channeled scablands (east on 26) were all carved some 13,000 years ago when Lake Missoula glaciers dissolved into floods raging up to 20 miles wide and 600 feet deep! Whitman county activists won Washington scenic byway designation for these roads following Indian and wagon trails in 2003 and now aim for federal status.

Perkins House

James Allen Perkins came to the area in 1870, when he was 29 years old. He and Thomas Smith traveled from Waitsburg to set up a sawmill at the suggestion of Anderson Cox, who speculated that the valley along the South Fork of the Palouse might make a fine location for a new settlement. They proceeded to build a log cabin with timber hauled from Walla Walla. Both Smith and Perkins staked out property. The two men split the valley, Perkins taking the northern part. He purchased a pre-emption on 160 acres at $2.50/acre. The line separating the two parcels ran east to west and later became Last Street.

Open Saturdays + Sundays 10am – 2pm, may be rented for special events

WI&M Historic Depot

The Historic WI&M Depot was the first commercial structure in the Company Town of Potlatch. Built in 1906, it was purchased by the Washington, Idaho & Montana Railway (WI&M) History Preservation Group (HPG) in 2001. The nonprofit spent 15 years restoring the structure that is now home to shops, offices, a museum, and regular events in the freight room (which also can be rented by the public).

Tour the Depot and museum, absorb the area’s unique heritage, then choose from local history books, art, clothing, and crafts in the shops.
