Written on the top half of this Peace and Friendship marker is, "The Corps of Discovery and area tribes often had to make a series of translations to communicate. In an April 1806 visit, that process included English, French, Mandan/Hidatsa, Shoshoni and Walla Walla." Under the image on the marker is, "we found a Shoshone woman, prisoner amonth these people by means of whome and Sahcahgarweah we found the means of conversing with the Wollahwollahs. April 28, 1806 Meriwether Lewis"
[A tall thin stone stands in the middle of shorter stones connected by a ring of metal wire. There are pebbles around the marker which sits in the middle of a grassy section near the river.]
