Which I-90 Idaho cameras should I check?

Walk them in driving order heading east: Fourth of July Pass, Cataldo, then Lookout Pass at the Montana line. There are two summits on this stretch — clear at one does not mean clear at the other. If one picture failed to load, skip it and use the next.

What about the Montana side of Lookout Pass?

Montana owns the rule east of the summit. Check the official Montana 511 before continuing toward St. Regis and Missoula.

Q: Is Lookout Pass open right now?

Only Idaho 511 can say. Open the official Idaho 511 map for today's status on I-90, then look at the cameras east from Coeur d'Alene — Fourth of July Pass, Cataldo, and Lookout Pass at the Montana line — to see the road for yourself.

Only Idaho 511 can say. Open the official Idaho 511 map for today's status on I-90 — open, closed, or restricted. That page is the rule.

Then look at the cameras below, west to east, to see the road for yourself.

Walk the cameras west to east

There are two summits between Coeur d'Alene and Montana: Fourth of July Pass → the Silver Valley → Lookout Pass at the state line. Clear at one does not mean clear at the other.

I-90 at Fourth of July Summit, east of Coeur d'Alene — The first summit east of Coeur d'Alene. Open all I-90 Idaho cameras.

I-90 at Cataldo in the Silver Valley — The Silver Valley floor, between the two summits.

I-90 at Lookout Pass on the Idaho–Montana line — Lookout Pass at the state line. This is the picture that matters most.

I-90 at Lookout Pass looking toward the Montana side — Over the top, toward Montana.

Official Idaho 511 stills. Check the time printed on the picture — if there is no time, do not trust it. If a picture failed to load, skip it and use the next one.

Why I-90 can be closed when the picture looks fine

A clear picture does not cancel a posted rule. Idaho closes or restricts I-90 for crashes, spun-out trucks, and snow removal on the grades — things a still photo may not show. Night glare can look like ice, and an old picture can lie. The posted status always wins.

Do I need chains for Lookout Pass?

Only the posted Idaho 511 status can say, and truck rules differ from cars. The full answer is in Do I need chains?

What about the Montana side?

Montana owns the rule east of the summit. Check Montana 511 before continuing toward St. Regis and Missoula. We do not re-host Montana cameras.

Check again before you leave

Storms change both summits fast. The Lookout traffic desk keeps the rule link and the full camera walk in one place.
