2003. Lower Columbia River Lewis and Clark sites - Boundary study: A study of sites for potential addition to Fort Clatsop National Memorial. National Park Service, Department of the Interior
This study was mandated by legislation passed by Congress and signed by President George W. Bush in August 2002. This study, which was jointly funded by the National Park Service and the State of Washington, looked at the feasibility and suitability of adding three sites along the lower Columbia River to Fort Clatsop National Memorial. The three sites studied include the Megler Safety Rest Area (Clark’s Dismal Nitch), Station Camp, and Fort Canby State Park (Cape Disappointment). These three sites are each important in commemorating the complete story of the Lewis and Clark expedition as they reached their destination, the Pacific Ocean, in the fall of 1805.
