Fort Clatsop Replica - Astoria, OR, USA - Exact Replicas on Waymarking.com

Here at the climax of their westward journey, the Corps of Discovery spent four rainy months preparing for their return. To protect themselves and their supplies, the party built two rows of huts secured by gated palisades. They named it "Fort Clatsop" after the local Clatsop Indians.

Nothing remains of the original fort. This 1955 replica was based on the floor plan and descriptions from the expedition journals. Archaeologists have not pinpointed the exact location of the fort, but they are certain it was near this site.
