(Click on any of these sites to visit on the web) U.S. Forest Service Sites: On many National Forests and Grasslands, you can stand in the exact places Lewis and Clark stood, imagine what they saw, and discover what has changed. By reading their journals and comparing the landscapes they described 200 years ago to those we now see, we can better understand the complexity of nature - how wind, fire, and flood shape the land- and consider the effects of human activities like fighting fires, harvesting timber, taming rivers, and grazing livestock.
