Hi jmfaill, we visited the Lewis and Clark centre in later part of October, and got there at opening time 9am from memory. the visitor guide, Larry, was very knowledgeable and pointed out many highlights that we would have missed if we just walked through ourselves. I would allow at least 2 hrs. He explained everything in so much detail, that we thought that he was on the expedition himself. If you have a tight schedule, then make time to do it properly, as you probably will not be back any time soon.
