Marias River decision camp — Joseph Whitehouse: June 7, 1805
Joseph Whitehouse · Marias River decision camp · Thwaites Vol. Thwaites Vol 7
That night's camp, per the NPS campsite reconstruction (Harlan): on the point/junction between the Marias and Missouri Rivers
rained the greater part of last night. a Cloudy wet morning.
Some men went out to hunt, and killed 2 Deer, rained
moderately all day. Capt Lewis & his party has not returned
yet. we expect the reason is owing to the badness of the
weather. nothing further occured this day.
