This outcropping above the Beaverhead River provided the Lewis and Clark Expedition a view of the route ahead.

You can drive to the site located just 1 mile north of Dillon off Highway 91, park right next to it, and walk the trail to the top. It is situated on 8.2 acres of land at 5,118 feet.

A golf course and three museums are located nearby in Dillon. This is a day use only site and there are no fees to enter the area.
