In
anticipation of the nationwide celebration of that event, which
will commence in
January,
The Ventura County Star dispatched senior
reporter John Krist last year to
retrace the explorers' route and examine how the West has changed
since they first described it. This yearlong project describes
what he learned during his three-month journey by road, river and
trail. The
project will be published in 12 monthly
installments
as we follow Krist's journey. The top navigation bar offers additional
features separated by medium. To read the articles along with featured
materials related to each installment, click, by section,"On
The Trail" located on the top navigation bar.

interactive map showing points along the Lewis and Clark trail,
their historical importance and changes that have taken place.
