Geocache Description:

In this trail of caches you will learn about the Expedition of the Corps Of Discoverers. Each and every cache is going to have information about what they went through along their way.

Sept. 21, 1806 - St. Charles, Missouri - The Corps passed the canoes of Kickapoo traders, as well as two large boats going upriver. The Corps arrived in St. Charles; Ordway noticed many new settlements that had sprung up since 1804. Clark stated that "the inhabitants of this village appear much delighted at our return and seem to vie with each other in their politeness to us all."

Sept. 23, 1806 - St. Louis, Missouri- The men rowed the rest of the way down to St. Louis, where Ordway reported that they "fired three rounds as we approached the town and Landed oppocit the center of the Town, the people gathered on the Shore and Huzzared three cheers." Lewis and Clark stayed in the home of Pierre Chouteau.
