The Tobacco Root Mountains stand proudly alongside Jefferson River - a testament to nature's grandeur intertwined with history.

Further downstream lies Judith River near its junction with Missouri River - an emblematic spot where two mighty rivers meet. The sheer magnitude of this confluence serves as a reminder of the vastness they encountered on their expedition. In Iowa's Onawa stands a full-scale replica wooden keelboat named after their main vessel - an homage paid to their remarkable voyage across treacherous waters. This sight allows visitors today to envision themselves sailing alongside these courageous explorers on Blue Lake.
