This BOM honors the American Heroine, Sacagawea; the only woman to travel with Lew and Clark's expedition. Her contributions were many, her bravery and fearless heart outstanding. The young mother, who carried her infant son on her back throughout the arduous journey, was a symbol of peace to other Native Americans. To Lewis and Clark, she was translator, teacher, guide and rescuer.

Laurie Simpson of Minick and Simpson, designed, stitched and quilted the quilt that commemorates Sacagawea's spirit and courage. Each block marks a step on the trail to the Pacific Ocean.
