| Description |
In 1804, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark began their journey along what is now the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail. With significant assistance from American Indian tribes along the route, the expedition was able to map and explore extensive western lands acquired only one year earlier from France by the United States in the Louisiana Purchase. Today, BLM manages stretches of the trail which look essentially the same as when Lewis and Clark first saw them. The only remnant of the expedition is Captain Clark's signature at Pompey’s Pillar National Monument in Montana. The trail was designated in to recognize the route’s role in shaping the Nation’s identity. Today, thousands of visitors follow this 3,700-mile, 11-State route that extends from Camp Wood, Illinois, to the Oregon coast. The Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail spans six BLM states: Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, and Washington. Two states have dedicated websites to the trail: Idaho - www.blm.gov/id/st/en/prog/blm_special_areas/lewis___clark... Montana - www.blm.gov/mt/st/en/prog/blm_special_areas/lcnht.html Photo: Bob Wick, BLM California |
