Chief Looking Glass Park
This 17-acre park five miles south of Clarkston, WA, honors Chief Looking Glass, a Nez Perce Chief and warrior who died in the Bear Paw Battle.
Like Chief Joseph, Chief Looking Glass (’Elelímyete’qenin’) favored the return of the “non-treaty” bands to the reservation, and even after the encounter with General Howard’s troops in White Bird Canyon, he strove to avoid war.
