MAP

Here is a map of the expedition. This shows the route that Lewis and Clark took while traveling. Their expedition confirmed the extension of the US into Washington and Oregon. They had taken this route (traveling next to and in the Missouri River) because that's what they were looking for, water going across the US. They had planned the route specifically so that they might find the route they were told was there.



Here is the website I got it from:

Reflection:
To be honest I did a map for a post because I knew it would be one of the easier things to do. I didn't have much time to come up with another post, so I took the easy way out. I think that if the whole map showed in the post when at the main page it would be a mostly successful map, but for some reason the whole map just doesn't show which is a problem.

The map is a little cut off and I'd like a little more analysis on the map. It is a good idea though and I just want more information. The reflection is honest and informative.
