Clark: February 18, 1805
On a cloudy Monday with some snow, William Clark spent the day at Fort Mandan working on a descriptive list of rivers compiled from information gathered from various sources. Several Indians visited, and Mr. McKenzie of the North West Company departed. The weather improved to fair conditions in the afternoon. The expedition's stored meat supply ran out on this day, signaling a need to resupply.
