We made a nice discovery.
We stopped for gas in Browning, MT, at a little low priced gas station
Looking at the Gas Station walls we saw some nice art work.

I have since discovered:
Browning is the Headquarters of the Blackfeet Indian Reservation..

Below are some of the artworks found this gas station.

Getting all of the equipment moved down from
the Upper Portage Camp, at the White Bear Islands,
to the Lower Portage Camp, was a considerable effort.
Moving 17 3/4 miles and 759 feet presented many problems.
After 5 days of preperation the move started on 21-June-1805
and was completed on 2-July-1805.

This was one of the most grueling undertakings on the entire expedition.
Wheels were made for the canoes
and the baggage had been placed in the 6 canoes
