Lewis and Clark Expedition WHEN Thomas Jefferson became president, it was his earnest wish that an expedition be sent to explore the great Northwest. Thus it was that Lewis and Clark, with some 25 soldiers, began their long journey in 1804 up the Missouri River, across the mountains, and thence down the Columbia to the Pacific. Little did they realize how great would be the hardships and sufferings which they should endure. They crossed an unbroken wilderness. From the Mandan country onward they were guided by the Shoshone Indian maiden. Sacajawca, and with her help safely threaded the defiles of the Rockies, and reached the upper waters of the Columbia. The descent of this great river in canoes was most perilous. Lewis made friends of all the Indians whom he met dwelling along the river. On November 7, 1805, Lewis and his party sighted the Pacific ocean from the mouth of the Columbia. This band of intrepid explorers had blazed the trail afterwards followed by the Northern Pacific and opened the overland way to the great Northwest Coast. CLASSES
