Before the Expedition arrived at present day Pasco-Kennewick- Richland, Washington, they were navigating through turbulent waters and rapids.


Clark noted in his journal on
October 13, 1805  The Expedition on rapids: "we should make more portages if the season was not so far advanced and time precious with us"

 

William Clark October 15, 1805: " bad dificuelt and dangerous rapid to pass, at the upper part of this rapid we over took the three Indians (probably the Palouse Indians), who had polited us thro the rapids from the forks"
