Running between the incredibly scenic Highway 12 and the historic Lolo Motorway, Parachute Hill is a steady climb into the Clearwater National Forest. Mixed conifers line the sides of this easy, winding trail. The upper section is along a steep shelf, so you should stop if you want to admire the views. Plunging off the side wouldn't be enjoyable.
Several good campsites are along the trail. The nearest to Highway 12 is a pull-through suitable for almost any rig. Another site on the east side of the trail has a unique wooden bench beside the fire ring and plenty of space for multiple rigs. The final campsite at the intersection with FR 5650 has room for several rigs. Nearby Powel campground offers water, picnic tables, and fire rings alongside Lochsa River. The historic Lochsa Lodge offers a restaurant, a small convenience store, expensive fuel, and lodging.
