The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) OR/WA is offering this grant to develop a travelling exhibit focusing on John C. Fremont’s 1843 government-sponsored exploration and mapping expedition across Oregon, Nevada, and California. This grant is for the purpose of creating an exhibit that will highlight Fremont’s historical campsites and utilize associated artifacts. The aim is to help visitors understand Fremont’s significant role in opening the American West to settlement. Additionally, the project may include the development of a Back Country Byway Self-Guided Tour brochure, mapping Fremont’s expedition route specifically across current BLM lands. This initiative seeks to educate the public on a pivotal period of western expansion.
