3, 1806: Captain Lewis and Captain Clark left Travelers' Rest on separate
explorations. Lewis headed north down the Bitteroot River; Clark moved
south up the Bitteroot. Both went by horse and foot. The river was
a geographic route guide at this of their journeys. Clark's route
led him along the Bitterroot, above, a few miles north of Hamilton
MT. Where he camped. |
