Those looking for access to the Missouri River between Fort Peck and Poplar, Montana will find it at Lewis and Clark Park located next to the historic Wolf Point Bridge on Montana State Highway 13. Depending on water levels, one can walk the sandy river shore observing wildlife tracks, plants, and washed-away cottonwood logs just Lewis and Clark did in early May 1805.
At the park is a boat launch and disc golf course. There are picnic tables plenty of shady cottonwoods, and a pit toilet.
Spanning the river is the historic bridge dedicated in 1930, now closed to motorized traffic. In 1930 it was called both the Wolf Point Bridge and Lewis and Clark Bridge. Today, it is the last example of a riveted Pennsylvania through truss bridge in Montana.
