Have you ever visited the “Lost Boat” on the south side of Great Falls? I went there about a year ago – stunning view, and fascinating piece. Surprisingly hard to find anything online about it.

A weblog about (mostly) Great Falls, Montana! NOTE: my posts here reflects MY opinions and observations, not those of my employer. You're smart enough to know that, right?
So, being a little presumptious, and *not* ever having been to view the Lost Boat, is it Lewis-and-Clark related? Like they left it here in Great Falls or something? Tell us how to get there, or at least what the sign says. . .
And Thanks!
I did find this mention, but alas, no picture.
Scroll 1/2 down the page, next to the picture of Black Eagle Dam. . .

Oops, not Black Eagle Dam, *Rainbow Dam*. Some Local I am!
That is a replica of a boat used by Lewis and Clark…beyond that I’m not sure, however, I do know that replica was created by Paul Blystone. Maybe next time I’m on base I’ll stop by his office and ask him for more information…of course I’m rarely on base any more.
