State Highway 60 (SH-60) is a state highway in Benewah County, Idaho, United States. It connects Washington State Route 274 at the Washington state line to U.S. Route 95 (US-95). The highway is approximately long and runs east–west.
SH-60 begins at the Washington state line as a continuation of Washington State Route 274, which travels west to Tekoa. The highway crosses Little Hangman Creek and travels southeast along Moctileme Creek; it continues east along the creek to a junction with US-95. SH-60 ends at the junction with US-95, which serves as the main north–south highway in the Idaho Panhandle region. The entire highway lies within the Coeur d'Alene Reservation in Benewah County.
SH-60 was added to the state highway system on September 17, 1959, by the Idaho Board of Highway Directors.[2]
