Question

Write a summary on Crossing the Rockies based on lewis and clark. a. Hardships b. Plans to succeed c. Accomplishments d. Mode of transportation

Answer 1

Well....first off, crossing the Rocky mountains had a ton of hardships, it was difficult because of the slow travel, low amount of rations, and the discouraged feeling of the many members of the expedition. Even before they made it to the Rockies, Lewis already thought that the mountains might be a large obstacle. And also, according to what I researched, their primary source of transportation were their horses, but since there was little to feed them, the horses wandered away in search of grass, which was another hardship, since without horses, they had to walk on foot instead.

I think Lewis and Clark's plans were to mainly follow the Missouri river, yet it is notable that this was unknown terrain for the two. 

Obviously, one of their accomplishments was crossing the Rockies, but Lewis and Clark also found several new species of animals.
