This page celebrates the heroic expedition of the Corps of Discovery, led by Captain Meriwether Lewis and Captain William Clark. Thirty three people traveled with them into unknown
territory, starting near what is now known as Wood River, Illinois in 1804, reaching the Pacific Ocean in 1805 and returning in 1806. Today's trail follows their route as closely as possible given the changes over the years. It is approximately 3,700 miles long, beginning
near Wood River, Illinois, and passes through portions of Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. The National Park Service does not own any portion of the trail. Various organizations and individuals are responsible
for trail stewardship with oversite provided by the Lewis & Clark National Historic Trail office. CONTACTS Email - LECL_Administration@nps.gov Fax- 402-827-9108 Write to
