Cascade
From Ulm you have a choice. Stay on old US HWY 91 to Cascade, or return to I-15 to exit 254. Pelican Point Fishing Access is 6 miles south of Cascade.

Lewis described it: "... we have now passed Fort Mountain on the right it appears to be about ten miles distant. this mountain has a singularappearance it is situated in a level plain, it's sides stand nearly at right angles with each other and are each about a mile in extent...." The rest of the images depict a morning at Pelican Point Fishing Access. Above, looking down river; top right, up river. The Corps passed here on July 16, 1805. I camped here on June 14, 2008.
