Clearwater County, Administrative division in northern Idaho, United States.
Clearwater County spans across mountainous terrain with dense forests, numerous rivers, and the Dworshak Reservoir nestled within its boundaries.
The county emerged in 1911 when it separated from Nez Perce County, deriving its name from the Clearwater River that flows through the region.
The county preserves Native American heritage through archaeological sites and maintains connections with the Nez Perce tribal traditions and historical locations.
Visitors can access multiple camping areas, hiking trails, and fishing spots throughout the county, with the main administrative services located in Orofino.
The Dworshak Reservoir extends 54 miles through the county, making it the second-longest reservoir in Idaho with 175 miles of forested shoreline.
