1805-1806
Near what is now Bismark and Mandan North Dakota. They spent the winter with the Mandan Indians and where they met Saqajawea
From November 7, 1804 to April 6, 1805, Lewis and Clark and the other spent their second winter at Fort Mandan. It took about three weeks to build Fort Mandan and settle in. The fort was comfortable and warm, which was good because otherwise the men may not have survived as temperatures dropped to 45 degrees below zero. The Americans would go out to hunt but the cold would force them back in and some suffered from frostbite. Meanwhile, the Mandan were quite friendly to them and they loved to see the corps dance, as they had brought with them a fiddle, tambourine and a horn. It was also during this time that Sacajawea gave birth to her first son by her husband Toussaint Charbonneau on February 11. IZANATOR1: Actually, they spent their FIRST winter at Fort Mandan.
