Route description

SH-13 begins at an intersection with US-95 in western Grangeville. It heads east through that city along Main Street. East of Grangeville, the highway heads generally northeast along the Harpster Grade Road, through the rolling farmland of Idaho County.

At the bottom of the Шаблон:Convert descent is an intersection with SH-14 at the western banks of the river.

Шаблон:Convert north of its intersection with SH-14, SH-13 crosses the South Fork Clearwater River and continues along the eastern banks. For the rest of its routing, SH-13 runs parallel to the river; a significant portion of which is within sight of the river. Since it lies at the bottom of the river valley, the road way is relatively flat, but it is surrounded by rugged, tree-lined hills. The highway passes through the communities of Harpster and Stites on its way towards Kooskia.

As it approaches Kooskia, the river valley widens allowing some space between the river and highway. It passes the city's municipal airport at the southern city limits. Now in the city, the road goes through its business district. The northern and southern halves of the city are separated by Шаблон:Convert of SH-13. At Broadway, SH-13's only child route, State Highway 13 Business (SH-13 Bus.), turns off to the east. Shortly thereafter, the mainline SH-13 crosses the Middle Fork Clearwater River near the confluence of the south and middle forks. At the other side of the bridge, SH-13 ends at US 12.
