By Paddle and Foot through Blackfeet Country Blackfeet Indian Nation and the Upper Missouri River, MT This trip focuses on the Blackfeet perspective of Lewis and Clark's arrival in their land. Based in a modern tipi with our Blackfeet host, we venture out to the Two Medicine site and visit a historic buffalo jump. We hear Indian viewpoints of contact with explorers, fur trappers, and the Hudson Bay Company. At night we share a traditional Blackfeet feast of bison meat. We continue by canoeing on the Upper Missouri National Wild and Scenic River. This float beneath the White Cliffs is considered one of the most scenic stretches along the entire Missouri. For 3 days we paddle the river and will see how the Corps' route has changed little since 1805. Dates for 2008: upon request (for families)
