The 29-mile Tucannon
Rd, branching off from Hwy 12 north of Dayton and ending at Tucannon
Campground, is a pleasurable and passable drive, full of both Lewis and
Clark history as well as pioneer history.
(below is an enlargement of the plaque in the photo above)
The crossroads town of Marengo, with its vintage country church, is a reminder of the area's pioneer past.
Finally, the serene campground on the Tucannon River.
(there is dispersed camping before crossing the bridge into the campground proper)
The nearby Wenaha-Tucannon Wilderness provides endless sporting opportunities.
The nearby historic Tucannon Guard Station is available for rental during winter months (see the great video, below)
