Missouri River near Leavenworth area — Charles Floyd: July 1, 1804
On a clear day, the expedition set out and passed Biscuit Creek on the south side, then Frog Tree Creek, also on the south side, with a pond of the same name on the north side. The water was good, and the party traveled about 12.25 miles, camping on an island near the south shore. The flanking party that had been separated the previous evening had still not rejoined the main group by the end of the day.
