Discover the Clearwater River Junior Explorer Activity Book
The Clearwater River is famous for its steelhead trout fishing and begins its journey in the Bitterroot Mountains in Idaho at the headwaters of the Lochsa and Selway Rivers. The river travels westward along U.S. Highway 12 and ends in Lewiston, at the confluence of the Clearwater and Snake Rivers. A confluence is where two separate rivers join together. The Snake River continues into Washington, where it joins the Columbia River and eventually flows into the Pacific Ocean. This activity book focuses on the history of the area, fishing along the river, the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail, and conservation and stewardship along the river.
