Missouri River approaching Cannonball River — Patrick Gass: October 19, 1804
October 19, 1804
having a clear day and a fair wind: passed a creek on the
south side. While out hunting yesterday I saw about three
hundred goats, and some buffaloe. Deer are not so plenty
here as lower down the river, but elk, buffaloe and goats, are
very numerous. Four hunters went out to day and in the
evening returned with 7 deer and three elk. We encamped
on the north side.
