The Lewis and Clark expedition created by US President Jefferson, brought back important information that was helpful to the US. No one knew exactly would be found during the expedition, however, the expedition mapped out more definitely what the boundaries of the Louisiana Territory were and what wildlife and Native Tribes were discovered. The expedition also put to rest the idea that there was a northwest waterway to Asia via the territory.
