from 1804 to 1806
Lewis and Clark primarily explored the Missouri River during their expedition from 1804 to 1806. They traveled up the river as they journeyed westward, mapping the territory and seeking a route to the Pacific Ocean. The expedition also included exploration of the Columbia River in the later stages as they reached the Pacific Northwest.
The two men who explored the Missouri River in 1804 were Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. They led the Lewis and Clark Expedition, which was commissioned by President Thomas Jefferson to explore the newly acquired Louisiana Territory and find a route to the Pacific Ocean.
