Exploring for winter camp site, south shore of Columbia — Patrick Gass: November 29, 1805
Patrick Gass · Exploring for winter camp site, south shore of Columbia · Thwaites Vol. Gass 1807 First Edition
Lewis with 4 men started, to go down and examine whether
there is good hunting and whether we can winter near the salt
water. Some of the hunters went out and in the evening
returned without killing any game, which appears scarce.
The hunting is also difficult, the country being full of thickets
and fallen timber. ‘There were some showers of rain and hail
during the day.
