Lewis and Clark route

We would love to travel the Lewis and clark route next year, but cannot seem to find any good information on the best way to go. Has anyone done this trip? Would really like a route and some good stops along the way

I assume you're looked at the "official" site? It looks like that suggests the places that have something to see.

No, I haven't but I did visit Fort Clatsop which was very interesting. http://www.nps.gov/lewi/planyourvisit/fortclatsop.htm

Also, be sure to visit the Columbia River Maritime museum in Astoria, which was very good

These are bicycling maps but you can drive a car on the same route

A side point - I would highly recommend you get your hands on a copy of the original diary that they kept -- it is published and I have read misspellings and all. It also has maps in it which will help you.
