Lewis & Clark Trail
From Salmon, US HWY 93 heads north following close to the Lewis & Clark Trail. Captain Clark blazed this trail, with Shoshone guides, on his reconnaissance of the Salmon River. The entire Corps passed this way ten days later. Clark's group bivouacked near what is now Tower Rock BLM Campground. It is one of the rare places where you can camp near an historic Lewis & Clark Trail camp. The interpretive sign is located here. Clark also named the Salmon River, right, " Louis's river" while he was here.
