Clark: September 30, 1805
On a fine, fair morning at the Forks, the Corps of Discovery rested and recovered, with most men slowly regaining strength while continuing to work on tasks at hand. Two members remained very sick. Clark observed a great run of small ducks moving down the river, and noted many Indians traveling up and down the river throughout the day. The entry reflects a quiet day of recuperation and steady labor at the encampment.
