Lewis & Clark Trail
		Camp Wood Illinois
		The captains chose to winter on the east side of the Mississippi several miles above St Louis at the confluence with Wood River - hence the name: Camp Wood. Sometimes they used the French name: DuBois River and Camp Dubois. Lewis officially named it " Camp River Dubois." The replica fort at the Lewis & Clark State Historic Site, gives one a close view of the Corps' construction skills. The historic site is located a few miles north of I-270. Take IL HWY 3 north to the outskirts of Hartford.
