Tuesday 8th. The morning was pleasant with some white frost. We started early and proceeded on nearly north; saw several deer, cabre and wolves in the plains, and after going three miles and a half passed Torrent creek, [23] a large creek that runs into Medicine river. Shortly after we passed this creek we went off the path or trail, travelled straight across the plains, and in about fifteen miles struck Medicine river, [24] close above the forks where we halted for dinner; and one of our hunters killed a deer and a cabre. In the afternoon we proceeded down Medicine river nine miles; and, having come, in the whole to day twenty eight miles encamped [25] for the night; and found the musketoes very troublesome.
2. Dearborn River, in Lewis and Clark County, which they named on July 18, 1805. Reaching it so far above its juntion with the Missouri, where they had first seen it, Lewis apparently did not recognize it at first and called it Torrant River. It was apparently Biddle who wrote in the substitution in dark ink. (back)
4. Elk Creek (faintly noted on fig. 4), a branch of Sun River, Lewis and Clark's Medicine River, in Lewis and Clark County. (back)
6. On an island in Sun River, between Lewis and Clark and Cascade counties, just north of Montana Highway 21 (see fig. 4). (back)
7. The rock underlying this area is the Two Medicine Formation; it is composed primarily of alternating layers of sandstone and shale. The gravel occupies river terraces and is mostly outwash that was deposited during the later part of the Pleistocene glaciations. The sandy soil of these plains allows water to percolate downward rapidly so that only hardy, deep-rooted, drought-resistant plants can survive. (back)
9. Clark headed southeasterly down Divide Creek in Beaverhead County, Montana, to a point west of present Bannack, where the creek turns east to join Grasshopper Creek (the lower part of Lewis and Clark's Willard's Creek), which goes on east to join the Beaverhead (Jefferson River to the captains). Atlas map 67 shows the route as a rather faint dotted line; it is much clearer on Atlas maps 103, 104. (back)
10. Clark now headed southerly following roughly the present route of a local road south from Bannack through the gap that leads into the captains' Shoshone (or "Snake indian") Cove to Horse Prairie Creek (the "West branch of Jeffersons river"). Lewis had first entered the valley on August 10, 1805. Clark paused on Horse Prairie Creek a few miles east of present Grant in Beaverhead County. Atlas maps 67, 103, 104. (back)
11. He went down Horse Prairie Creek to the forks of the Beaverhead River and camped at Camp Fortunate, where the party had first stopped on August 17, 1805, on the east bank of the Beaverhead just below the forks in Beaverhead County, a site now under Clark Canyon Reservoir just above the dam. Here Clark's party remained until July 10. Atlas map 104. "Fortunate Camp" appears on Atlas map 66. (back)
12. For this cache, see Lewis's entries for August 20, 21, and 22, 1805. Although Clark says everything was safe, only one plant specimen (golden currant) remains of those which were cashed here. That includes all those collected between the Great Falls and Camp Fortunate. The dampness may have caused the rest to mildew. Cutright (LCPN), 329. (back)
13. After descending from the divide between Big Hole River and Grasshopper Creek, Clark's party traveled principally across Tertiary sedimentary deposits and passed by several areas of Tertiary volcanic rocks. The boggy bottoms were along Grasshopper Creek and Horse Prarie Creek. (back)
15. At this point Clark inserted his courses and distances for the day; after them he continued his text, repeating the word "road." For convenience of reading we have continued the text and placed the courses and distances at the end of the entry. (back)
16. Biddle placed his interlineation in a large blank space at the bottom of p. 59 in Codex M. (back)
17. A reference to the trail west through Shoshone (or Snake Indian) Cove over Lemhi Pass to the valley of the Lemhi River ("East Fork of Lewis R" on Atlas map 67). See entries for August 1805. (back)
21. They are following Clark's route up Governor Creek and Bull Creek, roughly parallel to Montana Highway 278 in Beaverhead County, then crossed through Big Hole Pass. (back)
22. After leaving Big Hole Pass, the men reached Divide Creek and followed it a distance before getting on Grasshopper Creek, a branch of the Beaverhead (Jefferson) River, as Ordway surmised. They camped on an affluent of Grasshopper Creek, to the west and maybe south of Bannack, Beaverhead County. (back)
23. In fact, this was Dearborn River, Lewis and Clark County, Montana, although they did not recognize it at first, thinking it a tributary of Sun River, their Medicine River. (back)
25. On an island in Sun River, between Lewis and Clark and Cascade counties, Montana, just north of Montana Highway 21. (back)
