On June 6, 1804, the Lewis and Clark Expedition camped on the starboard side of the Missouri River after a challenging day navigating strong currents and eroding banks. Earlier, they passed notable landmarks including Split Rock Creek and Saline Creek, the latter known for its salt springs. The day's journey was marked by the river rising a foot overnight and the crew's efforts to mend the barge's mast before setting out.

Between Rocheport and Huntsdale, the Katy Trail skirts the base of the majestic Manitou Bluffs—towering limestone cliffs shaped by the Missouri River's erosive power. These bluffs hold deep cultural significance, adorned with ancient Native American pictographs and burial mounds atop their heights. Early explorers, including Lewis and Clark, documented these sites in the early 1800s.

Just west of Rocheport, the Katy Trail passes a fascinating relic of railroad history: a stone-faced bunker built into the limestone bluffs. Constructed in the early 1900s, this structure served as a secure storage site for explosives used during the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad's operations. Though now on private property, trail users can glimpse its sturdy facade from the path. This hidden feature offers a tangible connection to the region's industrial past, nestled within the scenic beauty of the Missouri River bluffs.

Just west of Rocheport, the Katy Trail offers a captivating journey through the 243-foot Rocheport Tunnel, the trail's only tunnel. Constructed in 1893 by the Missouri-Kansas-Texas Railroad, this tunnel was carved through Moniteau Bluff using manual labor and dynamite, showcasing 19th-century engineering prowess. Emerging from the tunnel, travelers cross the Moniteau Creek Bridge, a through-girder bridge spanning the serene Moniteau Creek.
