The Lewis and Clark Monument at the Turnaround on the Seaside Promenade (bobcat)

Description

This bronze statue at the Turnaround on Broadway is a relatively new addition to the Seaside Promenade, which was dedicated in 1921. The statue commemorates Lewis and Clark's arrival at the Pacific Ocean in November, 1805. They are standing over their hulking Newfoundland, Seaman, who is possessively holding on to a salmon. Vignettes around the base of the statue portray different episodes on their epic journey.

The statue was created by Stanley Wanlass and erected in 1990.
