The Corps of Discovery expedition, led by Lewis and Clark from 1804 to 1806, was a dramatic episode in American history. The expedition studied native cultures; collected specimens; and through maps, put form to what was terra incognita. Two hundred years later, our voyage follows in their footsteps past waterfalls, forested hillsides and steep desert canyons. Explore the Palouse River by landing craft and kayak; see Native American petroglyphs; cruise eastern Washington’s wine country; and take a jet boat ride into Hells Canyon, the deepest gorge in North America. This week-long journey offers breathtaking scenery and a unique insight into a crucial period in the history of a new nation.
