Blewett is named after the mining town of Blewett on the east side of Swauk Pass [hwy.97] There is a historical pullover at the old mining arrastra on hwy 97 with most of the old buildings and tallings up a canyon north of the site. This area can be mtn. biked by the clean living and hardy. Another area that is an interesting mtn. bike trip complete with brush bucking is the Negro Creek canyon just before Swauk opens up at Ingalls Creek, lots of old mine building stuff still up there, starts right of hwy.97 and ends on the old highway. This is a truly epic trip.
