Idaho History Marker about 19 miles north of Salmon, Idaho along U.S. Hwy. 93.
Text of Sign: Hoping for an easy river trip to the Pacific. Clark explored the first few miles of the rugged canyon of the Salmon below here late in August 1805.
His small advance party camped near here with poor but friendly Indians. Clark reported that the Salmon “is almost on continued rapid,” and that passage “with canoes is entirely impossible,” so the expedition had to buy packhorses and go 110 miles north to an Indian trail across the mountains.
