Alice Creek Trailhead and Lewis and Clark Pass Trail 493 are within the Alice Creek Historic District which is part of the Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail. The area still evokes the 1806 landscape experienced by Lewis on his journey. Remnants of the Cokahlarishkit Trail (a Nez Perce word meaning "Road to the Buffalo") remain intact, with features such as rock cairns, marked trees, and travois ruts.
