Walla Wallas was the Lewis and Clark Expedition. First meeting in 1805, the Americans promised to Walla Walla chief Yellepit they would visit with the people after seeing the Pacific Ocean.

The Americans had none in supply however, so Clark gave Yellepit his own…

Journal Summary, Over this long trip, I have experienced more things than any man will experience in his life. I travelled with Captain Meriwether Lewis, Captain William Clark, and four dozen other men. We came across native american tribes and treated very well by them. We traded with the tribes, expanded trading routes, and invited tribe representatives to Washington D.C. Also, if it was not for Sacagawea, we would not have returned home to greet our families. Before the trip started, we…

West’s The West Before Lewis and Clark begins by emphasizing how Lewis and Clark’s expedition to the West is important to the American narrative of westward expansion, but their story does not encapsulate the whole of western exploration. To prove this, West recounts the lives of three figures in history. The notable common characteristic between these three people is that they all explored or lived in the West, almost a century and a quarter, before Lewis and Clark set off on their expedition.…

Sacagawea was the most influential person on the expedition. She contributed much to the expedition even though the pressure and complications she had. Sacagawea was even said to do more for the expedition than her husband. “If it weren’t for Sacagawea, I’m sure the captains would have sent Charbonneau back to the Mandan Village… .” (Smith 104) Sacagawea was a young Shoshone Indian girl who was captured from her village by the Mandan/Hidatsa indians when she was twelve years old. (The…

"And so the adventure begins" might have been a few of the words the two of the greatest explores said before they started their own adventure in Yellowstone National Park. John Colter and Tom Murphy are both incredible explorers but both incredibly different.
