Yes, the Corps of Discovery, led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, found a route to the Pacific Ocean. They reached the Pacific Ocean in November 1805 after a long and arduous journey across the western United States.
The purpose of the Lewis and Clark expedition, or Corps of Discovery , was to find a water route to the Pacific Ocean.
The discovery of the Pacific Ocean was important because it became a route by which to navigate around the globe. Vasco Nunez de Balboa named the Pacific Ocean the South Sea, and used it as a way to get around the tip of South America.

The Pacific Ocean
going by the pacific ocean
The Northwest Passage from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean that Lewis and Clark sought after on the Discovery Corps Expedition does not exist. Another could be the sea route through the Arctic Ocean, along the northern coast of North America via waterways along the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. There are also northwest passages to destinations, such as India.
