Clark: September 18, 1805

Monday 18th Septr. 1805 a fair morning cold I proceded on in advance with
Six hunters to try and find deer or Something to kill we passed over a
countrey Similar to the one of yesterday more falling timber passed
Several runs & Springs passing to the right from the top of a high
part of the mountain at 20 miles I had a view of an emence Plain and
leavel Countrey to the S W. & West at a great distance a high mountain
in advance beyond the Plain, Saw but little Sign of deer and nothing else,
much falling timber, made 32 miles and Encamped on a bold running Creek
passing to the left which I call Hungery Creek as at that place we had
nothing to eate. I halted only one hour to day to let our horses feed on
Grass and rest
