A wonderful experience for the family. Get outdoors, enjoy history at its source. Don't tell Iowa but this is the location where Lewis and Clark met with the Native Americans...yes, this is the real Council Bluffs, right here in Nebraska. There's a marker on the location. Military reenactments on some weekends in summer. Winter events too. Bring your camera!
