Lewis
&
Clark
Trail
After leaving Kamiah, I was in position to return to the Lolo Trail and the Expedition's 1805 outbound journey. At Greer, 15 miles west of Kamiah, I turned north on ID HWY 11. It winds up a mountain to a grand plateau of rich farmland - Weippe Prairie. The town of Weippe, above, is 17 miles from Greer. Clark, with 6 hunters, staggered into the Nez Perce village on Sept. 20. Lewis and the rest of the Corps arrived on the 22nd. Top left, a reflection from the glass on a mural turns the scene into a collage of the surroundings at the Weippe Discovery Center & Library. Above, part of the town.
