Rumor has it that the journals of Lewis and Clark, the first United States explorers to travel to the Pacific coast, that we’ve know all our lives are a fake. The original journals are thought to be hidden somewhere along Lewis and Clark’s original trail to the pacific. Finding it will surely not be easy, but if you follow the stream of clues that the suspected culprit has left at various landmarks along the trail, maybe you and your team of archaeologists can become the national heroes to uncover the true journals of Lewis and Clark.
