A few days later, Clark arrived with Sacagawea who cried out when she saw her brother, the Shoshoni Chief Cameahwait, who was with Captain Lewis. She had been kidnapped by the Hidatsa Indians when she was twelve years old. In gratitude for returning his sister, Cameahwait gave Lewis and Clark the guide, Old Toby, and the horses they needed to cross the Bitterroot Mountains. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55cb874ce4b05b9a72d3fb90/1739822212894-1EO3WIQJEK5FFZ4DKO0X/006_Lemhi_Pass.jpeg Dental School Tour - Lemhi Pass at Sunset Montana The Shoshoni Indians were also known as fish eaters, which they found in the Lemhi, Salmon, and Bitterroot rivers west of the Lemhi Pass.

In late summers and early fall, the Shoshoni joined the Flathead Indians to hunt buffalo, and in the process they mastered horsemanship skills like the Lakota Indians to the east. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55cb874ce4b05b9a72d3fb90/1739822241719-TRJIZFMTKOIA9S9N3N7Y/007_Seaside_Oregon.jpeg Dental School Tour - Seaside, Oregon Captain Clark’s journal registered a sense of dismay at the violent and gusting rains which lasted all day, sometimes for days.
