Salmon River Scenic Byway

Reviewed By P2868BAalisonp

We traveled most of this route when we landed in Missoula and drove down to Salmon, ID. It starts at the border to Idaho (Lost Trial Pass area). Stunning views of the mountains/valleys and the Salmon River, loads of wildlife. We traveled the rest of the route later in the week when we drove to ghost towns - Bayhorse, Bonanza, and Custer. The views were exceptional.

Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural and Education Center

This 70-acre park is located in the Lemhi and Salmon River Valleys in eastern Idaho. It is surrounded by the Beaverhead Mountains and the Continental Divide and borders the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness. The Sacajawea Interpretive, Cultural & Educational Center interprets the rich cultural and natural history of the Salmon and Lemhi River Country, deepening people’s connection to the unique place this area holds in our nation’s history, which was shaped in part by the Lewis and Clark Expedition and Sacajawea, as well as her people, the Agaidika Shoshone-Bannock Tribes. The Sacajawea Center is owned and operated by the City of Salmon. Our mission is to foster the knowledge and appreciation of the Agaidika Shoshone-Bannock Tribes, the Lewis & Clark Expedition, Western frontier life, and the natural environment.

we learned a great deal about the native Shoshone people who lived in the valley and their interactions with Lewis and Clark, and later settlers. Don't miss the walk by the Lemhi River and native structures and explanations of the Salmon Eaters. A guide for native plants was useful too.
