Weippe Discovery Center
The Weippe Discovery Center focuses on telling the story of the Lewis
and Clark Expedition’s meeting the Nez Perce Indians on the Weippe
Prairie. Considered one of the most important in the Corps of Discovery saga, this story is best told in the place where it happened. In
addition to the interpretative center, the public library and technology center are housed here, along with a community meeting hall, college outreach center and small business enhancement center. A series
of painted murals depicting expedition events across the Bitterroot
Mountains, along with a life-size map showing the now famous trail
and campsites, are displayed around the center.
