The landmark as it appears today.
The landmark as it appeared in 1871.

For for one point, name the guide and the landmark. For three points, tell why the explorers considered the landmark so significant.

    Beaverhead Rock, Sacagawea showed it to Lewis and Clark

    It was important because it was a landmark that Sacagawea said she could use to find her tribe, the Shoshones. Lewis and Clark needed to find the Shoshones so that they could get some horses.

    Mark gets four points, for a total of nine.

    That was quick! I guess I should make these more challenging.
    By the way, if anyone notices a discrepancy in the running point totals, let me know. Being on the road, my accounting system is kind of haphazard.
