Fort Mandan, North Dakota — John Ordway: November 28, 1804
Snow fell in the morning with a northeast wind, and the river level was dropping. Ordway also noted tension from the previous evening between George Drouillard and Mr. Gibson, one of the expedition's interpreters, describing it as jealousy between the two men. The brief entry records little else beyond these weather conditions and the interpersonal friction within the party at their winter quarters.
