I arrived at the city of Great Falls on a beautiful sunny afternoon. Was nice to get a shower and do laundry. Went to the Lewis & Clark Museum which was over the top fabulous. Unbeknownst to the Corp of Discovery was that there were five waterfalls not just one. They thought they could portage in a few days - it took almost a month. Great exhibit of them pulling a dugout canoe up the cliffs. Great Falls is known as “electric city” due to the huge amount of hydroelectric energy created from 4 dams. I had very generous River Angels transport me around the dams
