Lewis & Clark Trail
Travelers' Rest SP
Lolo Montana
Stumps and rocks form a 4 points compass, left. Each stump symbolizes the tribes who came from that direction passing through here. These were here in 2007; gone in 2012. New interpretive signs describe the importance of the site to many tribes who traveled west to trade for salmon or east on the "going to buffalo" road to hunt on the plains. Above, this 300 year old Douglas Fir was close to 100 years old when the Corps camped nearby. Trade goods, center, were always a central part of activities at this camp, before and after Lewis and Clark's arrival. The trade goods display is now housed in the new Holt Museum. Top left, Lolo Creek flows from the west at the park.
