Lewis and Clark calculated the distance they traveled primarily by using a method called "dead reckoning," which involved estimating their position based on their speed, direction, and time traveled. They would take regular measurements of their course and speed, often using a compass and a logbook. Additionally, they employed tools like a sextant for celestial navigation and measured distances using a perambulator or by counting their paces over known distances. These methods combined allowed them to estimate their total journey length across the varied terrain they encountered.
