« Lewis and Clark The Lewis and Clark expedition crossed the Continental Divide near Lemhi Pass on August 12, 1805, accompanied by their interpreter, Sacajawea, a young Lemhi-Shoshone woman who was born near presentday Salmon, Idaho. It was in central Idaho that the hopes of finding a river passage to the Pacific were dashed. Begin your own “Voyage of Discovery” in this region by visiting the Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural, and Educational Center; rafting the Salmon River; and driving to Lemhi Pass on the Lewis and Clark Backcountry Byway. lewisandclarkidaho.org Mackay and Arco As you drive along Highway 93 beside the towering Lost River Range, you’ll see Idaho’s highest peak to the east. Mt. Borah is the most noticeable mountaintop in the range, surpassing the neighboring peaks at 12,662 feet. Nearby is the town of Mackay, nicknamed “Top of Idaho” because of its proximity to the peak. The majestic mountains surrounding Mackay are ideal for hiking and backcountry drives. Explore the area’s heritage on a self-guided tour of mining locations on Mackay’s Mine Hill. Located along the Big Lost River in eastern Idaho, Arco was the first city in the world to be lit with electricity generated by nuclear power in 1949. Its location makes it a good place to stop between the Craters of the Moon, 18 miles to the west, and the Idaho National Laboratory, the vast complex of scientific experiment stations. East of Arco, Experimental « For those who appreciate the middle of nowhere » Breeder Reactor # 1 National Historic Landmark is open to the public for free self-guided tours about this former nuclear reactor plant and the new technologies in nuclear energy. Salmon & the Lemhi Valley North of Challis, Highway 93 enters the serene and picturesque Lemhi Valley. Nestled in the shadows between the Bitterroot Mountains and the Lemhi Range, this is the valley where mountain men of the 1800s, Jim Bridger and Kit Carson, would spend the winter. Today, the town of Salmon is called the “Whitewater Capital of the World.” From Salmon, professional outfitters are available to take you on the river dubbed the “River of No Return,” the Main Salmon River. The Salmon River remains one of the few free-flowing waterways in America. Wildlife thrives in the rugged mountains and grassy meadows that embrace the river. The best way to experience the Salmon is with one of Idaho’s many licensed outfitters, who offer float trips ranging from one to eight days on calm or wild water. The town of Salmon is the largest in the area and a great place to stop, refuel, and refresh. Don’t pass up a visit to the Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural, and Educational Center. The museum celebrates the contributions of this Lemhi-Shoshone woman who served as an interpreter for the Lewis and Clark expedition. Enjoy the visitor center, outdoor amphitheater, Sacajawea monument, and a one-mile interpretive trail. Immerse yourself further in the explorers’ experience by driving up to Lemhi Pass on the Lewis and Clark Backcountry Byway. Many historians consider Lemhi Pass the most important site along the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail. It was here that the dream of an easy route to the Pacific died as the explorers gazed upon seemingly endless mountains ahead. The byway is a 38-mile, singlelane gravel road with steep grades, but it is certainly worth the journey. visitidaho.org | 105 Craters of the Moon Middle Fork Salmon River Sawtooth Mountains Lost River Range Sun Valley Resort Golf Course
