"Into the Unknown": An Online Adventure with Lewis and Clark
On April 7, 1805, The Corps of Discovery left Fort Mandan, where they had spent the previous winter, and headed west. On their maps, the land that Lewis and Clark was headed toward was indicated by a vast blank space and the word, "unknown." From that point forward, every trail the Corps walked, every corner they rounded was new. No one had any idea of what to come, or what to expect. This is where "Into the Unknown" begins. Only one difference: you're leading the expedition now. Click below to begin.
When Thomas Jefferson dispatched
Lewis and Clark to find a water route across North America and explore the
uncharted West, he expected they'd encounter woolly mammoths, erupting
volcanoes, and a mountain of pure salt. What they found was no less surprising.
