The second spot I chose is Beaverhead Rock.  This rock can be found in Beaverhead Rock State Park in Montana.  It can be found fourteen miles south of Twin Bridges on Montana Highway 41.  This area is dry and grassy.  It is fairly flat besides the rock itself.  On the expedition, Sacagawea recognized this rock formation from her childhood, and used it to decipher how far from her home and relatives she was.

The first spot I chose is the Ionia Volcano.  This volcano was found along the west side of the Mississippi River.   This volcano is found in a very plain and grassy area.  The land is fairly flat, and does not show many distinctive characteristics.  This volcano is found in Nebraska, which is located in the Midwest region of the United States.  Native Americans in this area found this volcano and the hill around it to be sacred.

The second plant that I am choosing is the Philadelphus lewisii.  Much like plant #1, this flower does not show many distinguishing characteristics.  I think that the members of the corps were probably more trustworthy of this flower.  I don’t think that this flower would have helped the members of the corps much.  This flower doesn’t provide them with a very good food source, or anything very helpful to their expedition.

The first plant that I am choosing is the Camas.  This plant is purple and does not show many distinguishing characteristic.  Because of this, the members of the corps were probably unsure whether this plant was safe or not.  They later found this plant to be an edible food source.  This plant may have made the expedition easier for the members of the corps because it provided them with a food source.

The second animal that I am choosing is the Buffalo.  I think that when the member of the corps first saw this animal, they were probably very frightened.  This animal is very large and has a mass amount of hair, and horns.  They probably found this animal quite intimidating. This animal could have both helped the members of the corps, and also make things more difficult.  Since this animal is of such a great mass, they would provide a lot of food and resources.  These animals came in large herds, potentially making it difficult for the members of the corps to safely travel.

The first animals that I am choosing is the Prairie Dog.  I think that the members of the corps would have found this animals very confusing.  The Prairie Dog lives underground, and will occasionally come up.  When the members of the corps first saw these animals pop out of the ground, they were probably very confused and fascinated.  This animal may have helped them on their trip because they are fairly small animals, which would could potentially make them a good food source, if need be.

The tribe I am choosing to talk about is the Shoshone Indians.  These Indians live in the eastern and western area of the Rocky Mountains.  When these Indians first met Lewis and Clark, they welcomed him.  Lewis showed them a sign of peace, and so Lewis and his men were welcomed.  The Shoshone Indians provided Lewis and his men with tepees to stay in and food to eat.  The Shoshone Indians lived in roofless huts, and they hunted a variety of animals.  They overall did help Lewis and Clark by giving them a place to stay, and some food to eat.

As a member of the Corps, Sacagawea dug for roots, collected plants to eat, berries, and gathered materials to make medicine.  Being able to gather food to eat and also use it to make medicine is an extremely important trait to have, so this would be very helpful on the trip.   While Sacagawea was on a boat, a storm arose and almost all of the important documents were lost.  Instead of freaking out, she solved the problem, and all of the documents were safe.  Being quick in times of distress is important because fall apart when people need help most would hurt us more than help us.

Sacagawea also acted as an interpreter for the Indian tribes and the men.  She knew how to speak french and also the language of the Indian Tribe, so she could help the two groups communicate with each other. This would be very important in case we had to talk to Indians that we came across if we needed help or directions.

I would like to have Private William Bratton assist me on my trip.  Bratton was considered to be one of the best young Hunter and woodsmen in his area of the country.  This would be very helpful during the trip, because we would need to hunt to find food.  We would also need to be able to use our resources.  Private William Bratton was seeking medical attention, when he encountered a bear.  He shot and killed the bear dead center.  This shows that Private William Bratton is a good shooter, which would be helpful if we are in danger.

When William Bratton shot the grizzly bear, he used it for more than one purpose.  He used the meat for food and grease, and then he saved the hide for other purposes.  Having the skill of using resources from different animals would be very helpful on this trip.  Private William Bratton was also a blacksmith and a gunsmith.  These details are very helpful when you need to use guns, and deal with different resources.

William Clark began working in the military when he was nineteen years old.  When he was nineteen he joined the Kentucky Militia, and then he later joined the army.  While in the army, William Clark had learned how to draw maps, as well as construct forts, fight indians, and lead pack trains.  These are all very good skills to have when traveling to a new land.  Being able to draw maps and construct forts would be extremely helpful when making this trip.

William Clark was said to be “strong and muscular” which would be very helpful during this trip.  We may need to move a large object or carry around materials, so having someone strong would be very nice.  Clark had lived near Louisville, and there he learned many wilderness skills.  Having wilderness skills would be very helpful because when traveling, there will be a lot of wilderness around.  Being able to use our resources would be very helpful.  Overall, Clark has a lot of important and beneficial skills that would help us during the trip.

Knapsacks would be helpful in transporting any materials you wish to bring along.  You could safely transport any blades with a knapsack, and carry items that you will need throughout each day.

A hand compass would help when you are trying to follow a map.  When using the compass you will know which direction you are going, which will help in not getting lost.

Knives would be helpful when cutting smaller, thinner materials.  It is small so you could transport it easily, and safely.

A map of the great bend of the Missouri River would be helpful while trying to find out where you need to go.  It will help you understand the area, and also keep you from getting lost.

Like coats, blankets will keep your body warm when the temperatures drop.  You will have a safer journey.

Coats would be nice for when you are traveling in the cold.  They will keep you warm and safe from cold temperatures.

While traveling, you may need to write something down.  You may need to make a map, or make note of something.

Hatchets would be helpful when you need to cut or shops down any large and thick materials such as wood.

Soap would just be the hygenic thing to do.  While it would keep you clean and somewhat presentable, it would help keep you from getting sick.

# data[].attributes.body
I would bring portable soup because I think this would be very helpful when traveling.  When you are traveling you might not have much time to hunt, so being able to travel with pre-made food would be very helpful.
