During the winter of 1805 and 1806, salt became scarce and was badly needed by the Lewis & Clark expedition for preserving meat and fish, and for the coming return trip. Three men from the group were assigned to the beach some distance north of Seaside’s Cove area, to establish the “Salt Cairn”, also known as the “Salt Works”. They worked continuously from February 2 to February 20, 1806, boiling sea water from which they extracted four bushels of salt.
