    Following in Their Footsteps: Creating the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail, by Wallace G. Lewis

    WashingtonHistory.org FOLLOWING IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS Creating the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail By Wallace G. Lewis COLUMBIA The Magazine of Northwest History, Summer 2002: Vol. 16, No. 2 In May 1961 conservationist and celebrated political cartoonist for the Des Moines Register, J. N. "Ding" Darling, proposed that the Missouri River be incorporated into "a national outdoor recreation and natural resources ribbon along the historic trail of Lewis and Clark." Gravely ill, Darling knew he would not live to see such a project carried out, but he secured banker and fellow conservationist Sherry Fisher's promise to initiate a campaign for it. Darling, who had briefly served President Franklin D. Roosevelt as chief of the Biological Survey, was famous for his syndicated editorial cartoons promoting wildlife sanctuaries and opposing dam construction, particularly on his beloved Missouri River, and had been a major founder of the National Wildlife Federation. Following his friend's death in February 1962, Sherry Fisher helped form the J. N. "Ding" Darling Foundation, which he steered toward creation of a Lewis and Clark trail corridor that would also provide habitat for wildlife. Encouraged by Interior Secretary Stewart Udall, representatives of the foundation, federal agencies, and the states through which the Lewis and Clark trail passed met in Portland, Oregon, in the fall of 1962 to discuss the Darling proposal. Congress approved a trail plan in principle in 1963, and the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation began to study development along a ten-mile corridor for inclusion in a proposed nationwide system of scenic trails. On October 6, 1964, Public Law 88-630 was passed authorizing creation of a Lewis and Clark Trail Commission to promote public understanding of the expedition's historical significance and to review proposals for developing "desirable long-term conservation objectives" and recreation opportunities along its length.

    GREAT FALLS PORTAGE COMMORATIVE AWARD PATCH PORTAGE ROUTE CHAPTER LEWIS AND CLARK TRAIL HERITAGE FOUNDATION, INC. “The mission of the LCTHF is: As Keepers of the Story – Stewards of the Trail, the Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation, Inc. provides national leadership in maintaining the integrity of the Trail and its story through stewardship, scholarship, education, partnership and cultural inclusiveness.” The Portage Route Chapter supports this mission in the area of the Missouri River in and around Great Falls, Montana. A Memorandum of Understanding between the Boy Scouts of America and the Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation was signed on August 6, 2007. The purpose of this memorandum was to establish a general framework for cooperation between the Lewis and Clark Trail Heritage Foundation, Inc., and the Boy Scouts of America. Through this MOU the Foundation and BSA will collaborate on projects and programs that interpret the stories of the Lewis and Clark Expedition and provide stewardship of the Lewis and Clark national Historic Trail. The Lewis and Clark Trail also is an auto route with distinctive road signs that follows the water route taken by the Corps of Discovery, mostly along the Missouri River. In Montana, the Portage Route follows the trail of the expedition from the area of Lower Portage Camp westward to the White Bear Islands and Upper Portage Camp. The Portage Route Chapter wants to inspire the Boy Scouts to learn more about the Lewis and Clark Expedition by offering an embroidered patch. By way of an agreement with the Montana Council, BSA, this patch can be earned by Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts, Explorers and Venture Scouts.

    Meriwether Lewis the Science of Geology and Lewis and Clark in the Early 1800S

    “The object of your mission is to explore the Missouri river, & such principal stream of it, as, by it’s course & communication with the water of the Pacifi c ocean may offer the most direct & practicable water communication across this continent, for the purposes of com- merce. Other objects worthy of notice will be; the soil & face of the country . the animals...the remains or accounts of any which may be deemed . extinct; the mineral productions of every kind; but more particularly metals, limestone, pit coal, & saltpetre, salines & mineral waters, noting the temperature of the last, & such circumstances” Excerpt from instructions written by President Thomas Jefferson to Meriwether Lewis, June 20, 1803 The Science of Geology and Lewis and Clark in the early 1800s The science of Geology was in its infancy at the time of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Neither Lewis nor Clark had any training in geology, mining, or mineralogy. The geologic terms they used, however, reveal much about their understanding (and misunderstanding) of geology. Their journal entries name several rock types: chalk, fl int, fl intstone, freestone, granite, lava, limestone, marble, marl, pumicestone, sandstone, sandrock, slate, slate stone, and slate rock. Generally, the captains identifi ed these rock types correctly – but not always. The captains were acquainted with names of many minerals, nevertheless most of the minerals and salts that they described were identifi ed incorrectly. Lewis and Clark sometimes ascribed colors to rocks that probably resulted from conditions of sunlight, shadow or vegetation rather than to actual color of the rocks themselves. Both captains had a good command of geograph- ic terms and used most of them in their current meaning.

    NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARKS Dr. Harry A. Butowsky GEOLOGY THEME STUDY Page 1 Geology National Historic Landmark Theme Study (Draft 1990) Introduction by Dr. Harry A. Butowsky Historian, History Division National Park Service, Washington, DC The Geology National Historic Landmark Theme Study represents the second phase of the National Park Service's thematic study of the history of American science. Phase one of this study, Astronomy and Astrophysics: A National Historic Landmark Theme Study was completed in l989. Subsequent phases of the science theme study will include the disciplines of biology, chemistry, mathematics, physics and other related sciences. The Science Theme Study is being completed by the National Historic Landmarks Survey of the National Park Service in compliance with the requirements of the Historic Sites Act of l935. The Historic Sites Act established "a national policy to preserve for public use historic sites, buildings and objects of national significance for the inspiration and benefit of the American people." Under the terms of the Act, the service is required to survey, study, protect, preserve, maintain, or operate nationally significant historic buildings, sites & objects. The National Historic Landmarks Survey of the National Park Service is charged with the responsibility of identifying America's nationally significant historic property. The survey meets this obligation through a comprehensive process involving thematic study of the facets of American History. In recent years, the survey has completed National Historic Landmark theme studies on topics as diverse as the American space program, World War II in the Pacific, the US Constitution, recreation in the United States and architecture in the National Parks.
