  • When we arrived to our objectiv we began to return in St Louis. It was faster than in the path. We put only six months and all were happy to find their family. The president Thomas Jefferson was very happy to our expedition and thanked everybody.

    Thanks to this expedition : - It allowed to progress in the knowledge of the West.
    - We discovered in total 178 plants and 122 species of animals.
    - We met 50 tribes (Sioux, Missouris, Otos, Shoshone etc)

    The camp was in Valley County, Montana, above Snow Creek in an area now inundated by Fort Peck Reservoir. The Corps noted huge herds of buffalo, elk, deer, wolves and antelope. Six of the men attacked a grizzly with their rifles; although the bear was hit many times, it continued to pursue them. It took eight balls to kill it. The white pirogue was overset when Charbonneau was at the helm; many valuable articles might have been lost without the clearheaded help of Sacagawea; Lewis and Clark were both on shore at the time.     (Marion)
