Born in the Lemhi River Valley around 1788, Sacajawea, an Agaidika Shoshone, was the only female member of the Lewis and Clark "Corps of Discovery." She joined the expedition at the Knife River Mandan Village in North Dakota and traveled to the Pacific Ocean and back with her infant son, Jean Baptiste Charbonneau. She passed through her homeland in August of 1805. Sacajawea's bravery, strength, and resourcefulness earned her a notable place in history, and Lemhi Shoshone descendants remember her traditional and cultural teachings, her perseverance on an arduous journey, and her contribution to unity and peace among nations.
