In spring 1805, they continued to the headwaters of the Missouri River, struggled across the Continental Divide at Lemhi Pass, and headed west along the Salmon, Clearwater, Snake, and Columbia Rivers to the Pacific.

Not at all, far from it actually. Lewis and Clark in fact highly respected her even though she was a Native American and a young woman. She became invaluable as a guide in the region of her birth and as a interpreter between the expedition and her tribe. Lewis and Clark respected her more as a comrade than her husband, a French trapper named Toussaint Charbonneau. Lewis and Clark didn't like how Toussaint treated Sacagawea, and after the expedition, Clark would be the one to raise and educate her son at a time when there was absolutely no opportunity for education for Native Americans.
