Signs
at the interpretive kiosk at Lewis & Clark Trail State Park cover
the story of the return trek from the Columbia River to the Snake
River. Top left, the Touchet River runs west through the park to the
Walla Walla River. The Corps intersected the Touchet River on April
30, 1806. They left the Columbia and Walla Walla Rivers that morning.
They followed the Touchet River after their bivouac at the Touchet
on the 30th. You can follow part of this route, in reverse, by taking
WA HWY 124 from Waitsburg. This highway also allows access to the
next outbound LC site on the Snake River via a side road. You can
also drive south on US HWY 12 to Walla Walla (See map on lct239b). |
