Discover the Lewis and Clark Trail

The Lewis and Clark Trail is not just a route—it is a journey into the soul of a young nation, shaped by encounter and endurance.

​

Spanning more than 4,600 miles and crossing four time zones, the Lewis and Clark Trail is a cultural odyssey through some of the most breathtaking and untamed lands in America. It is a passage through beauty and hardship, memory and meaning—a trail where the past is always present, and every bend in the road tells a deeper story.

The First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park, Montana, stands as a bridge between peoples, cultures, and perspectives — a place where stories echo across the cliffs of time.✨ “The buffalo was part of us, his flesh and blood being absorbed by us until it became our own flesh and blood. Our clothing, our tipis, everything we needed for life came from the buffalo's body.

The Indian in the meantime has taken care to secure himself in some cranny in the cliff… the part of the decoy I am informed is extremely dangerous.”📚 Featured BookBlood Memory: The Tragic Decline and Improbable Resurrection of the American BuffaloBy Dayton Duncan & Ken BurnsA powerful and beautifully illustrated history of the buffalo in America — from ancient times to today — inspired by the PBS series American Buffalo.👉 Available on Amazonhttps://amzn.to/44e1QnJ(As an Amazon Associate, commission is earned on qualifying purchases.)#lewisandclarktrail #nationalnativeamericanheritagemonth #montanastateparks #The First Peoples Buffalo Jump State Park, Montana, stands as a bridge between peoples, cultures, and perspectives — a place where stories echo across the cliffs of time.✨ “The buffalo was part of us, his flesh and blood being absorbed by us until it became our own flesh and blood.
