The keelboat, which is 55 feet long and 8 feet wide and the
White Pirogue which is 32’ long and 8’ wide, are
central education exhibits at the Lewis & Clark Center. They
provide the imaginary educational vehicles to help transport
the visitor through the highly interactive rediscovery of the
explorers’ remarkable journey on the great Missouri River.
The white pirogue in the Center exhibit
will be a cutaway model. Visitors will have a chance to
learn how to row the pirogue upstream. The keelboat is a
discovery experience as an outside exhibit next to the
Entrance sidewalk. They view the cabin where the
captains slept and kept their
journals. |
