CHALLIS, Idaho (KIFI) - Beginning Wednesday, the Idaho Transportation Department will be scaling rock on SH-75 between Challis and Clayton.

Rock scaling is the safe removal of loose rock from the face of a mountain or hill to ensure it does not fall on the roadway.

  • MP 231.45 to 231.52 Site one: ~1-days
  • MP 231.66 to 231.75 Site two: ~3-days
