Clark's Fork of the Yellowstone River

This breathtaking spot along the Chief Joseph highway crosses a 300-foot deep canyon over the river. Apparently, Clack explored here and then the Nez Piece used the canyon as a way to escape the US soldiers who were in pursuit. We have been following the Nez Pierce trail for about a week and visited some of the other sites on our 2015 trip (Big Hole National Battlefield).
