This all-log visitor center that resembles a classic 1930s ranger station, is a prominent landmark on US 12, the Lewis and Clark Highway and Northwest Passage Scenic Byway. Inside the center are displays with information on the Lewis and Clark Expedition, and on the 1877 flight of the Nez Perce (Nimiipuu). A nearby interpretive trail circles the area around the center. Nearby Packer Meadows is dotted with Camas, once harvested by the Nez Perce, and bloom in the early summer.
