Lewis and Clark explored North Dakota during their expedition from 1804 to 1806, primarily following the Missouri River. They documented the region's geography, wildlife, and native tribes, including the Mandan and Hidatsa. Their interactions with these tribes were significant for trade and establishing diplomatic relations. The expedition's findings contributed to the United States' understanding of the western territories.

When Lewis and Clark wintered at the present site of Bismarck, North Dakota, there they met Sacagawea and her husband in 1804. Toussaint Charbonneau was interviewed to interpret Hidatsa for the Lewis and Clark expedition, but Lewis and Clark (esp. Clark) were not overly impressed with him. However, Sacagawea his wife spoke Shoshone and Hidatsa, so they hired Charbonneau on November 4, and he and Sacagawea moved into Fort Mandan a week later. Sacagawea was 16 or 17 at this time.
