signs are placed along the walkway leading to the Sacajawea Interpretive
Center. The Columbia River, flowing from the northwest, above, and
the Snake River, top left, flowing from the northeast, meet at the
park point to form Lake Wallula, left. The lake is the confluence
of the rivers. At this confluence, Lewis and Clark were able to explain
the geographic separation between the Missouri and the Columbia. Explorers
knew them, but thought they were linked. |
