Here are some interesting facts you may
or may not know:
The Lewis and Clark Expedition is one of
the most monumental events in American history – one that forever changed
the landscape and mindscape of our country.
Lewis and Clark are considered two of
America’s greatest heroes – not only for their bravery, but for their
leadership skills, intelligence, diplomatic efforts and diligence in
recording their journey – from plant and animal species to the very detailed
maps that Clark created from lunar observations.
Montana is the state that offers the most
authenticity to the visitors who flock to present day Lewis and Clark sites
each year. Unlike many of the other trail states, Montana remains very much
the same in appearance as it did 200 years ago and many significant Lewis
&Clark sites are as yet undeveloped. Today, it is possible to find spots
along the Missouri River in Montana where civilization recedes and the
American frontier is revealed.
Don’t forget to retrace the footsteps of
Lewis & Clark, the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail Interpretive
Center offers hands-on exhibits, authentic displays, video presentations and
knowledgeable guides as you journey through time with some of America’s
greatest heroes today!
