    Extractions: Search T he Lewis and Clark Expedition was organized for the express purpose of exploring the new lands acquired through the Louisiana Purchase. Although this territory extended only to the limits of the area drained by the Missouri River, the expedition decided to explore all the way to the Pacific Ocean in order to gather further scientific knowledge, a particular interest of President Jefferson. S etting out from St Louis MO on May 14, 1804, the expedition started up the Missouri with a party of about 40 men and one large Newfoundland dog. After exploring the Platte River, they continued to Fort Mandan in present day North Dakota, where they wintered. After the breakup of winter ice on the Missouri, the party continued upriver and reach the mouth of the Yellowstone River just east of the present state line on April 26, 1805. E xploration of the Yellowstone would wait for the return trip. Lewis and Clark headed west along the Missouri into Montana. From the Yellowstone to the Musselshell River, they encountered no natives, but a great deal of wildlife. The area along the river where the expedition actually passed is now largely submerged beneath the Fort Peck Reservoir. Much of their path is now within the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge. [

    Extractions: It's a way of designating their approximate path through the future states of Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington, and Oregonand back. Because they traveled by river, and rivers have shifted their courses and been altered by dams, the "trail" is not exact. TO TOP OF PAGE Why did Lewis and Clark make this trip? President Thomas Jefferson had long wanted to see what the lands of western North America were like. His scientific curiosity mixed with political interests. With the approval of Congress, he made plans even before the Lousiana Purchase was completed. He asked Meriwether Lewis, his secretary, to head the expedition and to selected his own co-captain. Lewis chose William Clark, who once had been his commanding officer in the army. TO TOP OF PAGE How good a guide was Sacagawea?

    Extractions: The Lewis and Clark expedition ) was the first American overland expedition to the Pacific coast and back. The Louisiana Purchase in 1803 sparked the interest of United States in expansion to the west coast. A few weeks after the purchase, United States President Thomas Jefferson , an advocate of western expansion, had Congress appropriate $2500, "to send intelligent officers with ten or twelve men, to explore even to the western ocean." They were to study the Indian tribes botany geology and wildlife in the region, as well as evaluate the potential interference of British and French-Canadian hunters and trapppers who were already well established in the area. Jefferson selected Captain Meriwether Lewis to lead the expedition, afterwards known as the Corps of Discovery ; Lewis selected William Clark as his partner. Due to bureacratic delays in the US Army , Clark officially only held the rank of second lieutenant at the time, but Lewis concealed this from the men and shared the leadership of the expedition, always referring to Clark as "Captain". http://lewisandclarkjournals.unl.edu/v02.appendix.a.html

After the expedition, he was appointed the Governor of Louisiana Territory. Clerks in Washi ngton protested some of his drafts -some of which were connected with the expedition - which caused him emotional strain. He decided to go to Washington to explain the drafts, and while enroute on the Natchez Trace, he died, either by murder or suicide, o n October 11, 1809.

Jefferson bought an area with vague boundaries but which more than doubled the current America for as little as $15 million (approximately 3.5 cent per acre) from France.(2) Therefore, Jefferson dispatched a secret message to Congress requesting $ 2,500 for an expedition in order to search out a land route to the Pacific, to strengthen American claims to Oregon, to gather precise data about flora and fauna, information about the Native Americans and the country of the west.

    Extractions: In 1804 a hopeful Thomas Jefferson sent Captains Meriwether Lewis and William Clark to find the fabled River of the West. From the time of Columbus, explorers and statesmen had dreamed of a Northwest Passage, an all-water route connecting the trade routes of the Pacific to the Old World of the Atlantic. As president of a still-young nation, Jefferson had pressed for the Louisiana Purchase to strengthen American trade and settlement. The final $15 million-dollar agreement with France doubled America's size overnight. On April 25, 1805, the Corps of Discovery camped by the riverside near the future site of Fort Union. Lewis and Clark hoped they were only weeks away from the Pacific via an all-water route, the mythical Northwest Passage. The group rested and celebrated their arrival at the confluence of the Yellowstone and Missouri rivers. The expedition journals noted the spot's potential as a trade location between two navigable rivers, the early highways of commerce. Entering what would be Montana led the expedition into the land of the Blackfeet. Their first contact with this tribe had been less than promising. The Northwest Passage was not Jefferson's only priority. In fact, of the tasks assigned them, Lewis and Clark accomplished the most within the modern borders of Montana. Contact and negotiations with native tribes, the reconnaissance of suitable sites for trading posts and forts, and scientific accounts of the land's plants, animals, and scenic resources were all in keeping with Jefferson's hopes for the expedition.

    Extractions: Meriwether Lewis (1774-1809) and William Clark (1770-1838) set out in May 1804 to explore and map the American West. Lewis and Clark were accompanied by a crew of men, and later, the Shoshone Indian guide and interpreter Sacajawea (also spelled Sacagawea) and her infant son. Lewis and Clark travelled by river and by land from St. Louis, Missouri , to the Oregon coast (Fort Clatsop), and back again. President Thomas Jefferson commissioned Lewis to head an expedition to explore the newly-bought Louisiana Territory in order to further commerce (trade). Jefferson also wanted information on the plant and animal life of the American West. This was the first official expedition to cross the continent to the Pacific Ocean. Lewis chose Clark as the co-leader of the expedition; the two men had been friends since childhood. Lewis left Philadelphia

    Extractions: Special Places ... Act Now! "It was the first report on the West, on the United States over the Hill and beyond the sunset, on the province of the American future. There has never been another so excellent or influential." Historian Bernard DeVoto In 1803, shortly after the Louisiania Purchase was finalized, President Thomas Jefferson ordered 45 men Captains Meriwether Lewis, William Clark and their Corps of Discovery to "find the shortest and most convenient route of communication between the U.S. and the Pacific Ocean." Jefferson instructed the exporers to map "the face of the country," make contact and peace with the Native peoples they encountered and to be naturalists, recording species of plants, birds, reptiles, insects and mammals, "especially those not known in the U.S..." By boat and on foot for the next three years, Lewis and Clark navigated and named two-thirds of the American continent. They traveled 8,000 miles hauling 3,500 pounds of equipment, guided for part of their expedition by Sacagawea, a Shoshone woman. By journey's end, they had written the first scientific descriptions of 178 plants and 122 animals. Find out more about the expedition: Sierra Magazine: Lewis and Clark issue
