By the end of October 1804, Lewis and Clark reached to the he present city of Mandan, North Dakota. There they decided to stay and get ready for the harsh winter that was coming. They spent the winter there getting everything ready for the spring departure for when it was time. One of the most fortunate things that happened was that winter was that they met Sacagawea, who was an Indian from the Lemhi tribe. She was a great contribution to the expedition, she served as an interpreter and guide, cared for the sick and taught them how to survive in hostile country. She was a great help an addition to the journey.
