<p>The Lewis and Clark Exposition was hosted by the city of Portland from June 1 to October 15, 1905.
Covering over 400 acres, the fair showcased exhibits from various nations and states, and it promoted the economic potential of the Pacific Northwest region.


Lincoln Beachey, an eighteen-year old balloon pilot, made nine ascents above the exposition grounds in 1905.  He operated T.S. Baldwin's motor-driven blimps "Angelus" and the "City of Portland."</p>
