Clark: January 24, 1805
On a fine Thursday in late January 1805 at Fort Mandan, Clark noted that the expedition's interpreters were beginning to understand one another better than they had in previous days. Several hunters were sent out but returned empty-handed, having killed nothing. The day's other recorded activity was cutting coal wood.
