The Rocky Mountains and the Columbia River would have presented major obstacles to the Lewis and Clark expedition. The rugged terrain and the swift currents would have made travel difficult and dangerous for the explorers.
The major landforms encountered during the Lewis and Clark expedition include the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains, Columbia River, Missouri River, and the Louisiana Purchase territory. These diverse landscapes presented both challenges and opportunities for the expedition as they navigated their way westward to the Pacific Ocean.

The Lewis and Clark expedition's goal as stated by President Jefferson was "to explore the Missouri River, & such principal stream of it as, by its course & communication with the water of the Pacific ocean may offer the most direct & practicable water communication across this continent, for the purposes of commerce." In other words, Lewis and Clark had to find an all-water route to the Pacific Ocean and in this they failed. The route they did create, however, would end up being a major part in the creation of the Oregon Trail. Also, during the journey, Lewis and Clark prepared approximately 140 maps and these proved very useful during the great pioneer movement that settled the West in the mid-1800's.
