I would use the surveyor's compass to  put me in the right direction and make more accurate maps to help people later on. I would use shoes to walk with, and hatchets and handsaws to cut down trees and for protection. 12 pounds of soap to keep clean and give to indians, tourniquets to help with wounds. Blankets to keep warm and  a telescope to survey the land. 15 prototype muzzle loaders to hunt and protect us and knapsacks to hold everything.

He was often referred into the journals as the blacksmith, gunsmith, or general mechanic of the expedition’s personella. He was praised by the captains for how he improvised, using what little metallic products they carried with them to make hide scrapers and arrow points for the Indians. 

        I would also choose John Shields because he would the wisest and have the most experience out of all the privates. Another reason I would have John come with me because I believe he would've been loyal to the Corps of Discovery no matter what happened. Having a blacksmith come with us would've been useful because he could've made bullets for hunting and protection.

Vaccinium ovatum is also known as evergreen huckleberry, winter huckleberry, and California Huckleberry. These attractive plants grow well under forest canopies and also in the open sunlight. These plants have a long history of use by Native Americans as a food source and for colored dyes. Americans can use these plants for food and colored dyes just like the Native  Americans.Americans  can use these berries for food and mainly pies. 
  Grizzly Bear

These bears are very large and dangerous to all humans. Grizzly bears are large and range in color from very light tan to dark brown. They have a dished face, short, rounded ears and a large shoulder hump. The hump on the back of the grizzly gives the bear extra power for digging. Grizzly bears are very powerful and dangerous so much that it takes 10 musket balls to take it down. Grizzly bears are a threat to anyone wandering through the mountains and riversides.

The Blackfeet were extremely skilled Bison hunters and lived a mostly nomadic life following the Bison. Eight blackfeet warriors met the corps of discovery in 1806. After the indians fears subsided they decided to camp with the blackfeet. Lewis explained that they were trying to bring peace between all the natives in the region, he went on and added that he gave guns to the Shoshone and Nez Perces who already agreed to this. The Nez Perces and Shoshone were mortal enemies of the blackfeet and received this as a direct threat. That night the blackfeet tried to steal the expeditions guns. Their plans went awry and Lewis and Reuben each killed a blackfoot warrior. This incident marked the first bloodshed between western indians and the representative from the United States.

It exemplifies an uneasy fusion between these two major cultural traditions. Spirit mound had very diverse and different meanings to all Natives and Euro-Americans. For the Sioux the Spirit mound is associated with tree dwellers/little people.Long ago two tribes battled to a stalemate. They both sought help from the spirits at spirit mound. They tried to manipulate the spirits for their own purposes. They failed and brought two types of spirits into the world.

This has changed because of the Natives hunting and the clearing out to industrialize the land of the U.S. Now the most common animals in South Dakota are antelope, deer, elk, beaver, bobcat, porcupine, coyotes, rabbits, prairie dogs, and Bison. There were so many bison, they haven’t been completely eliminated but the population has dropped significantly.
