Beautiful Landscapes # Historical Content # Fun Adventures Lewis & Clark, and the River of No Return Wilderness Tour.
This Summer: July 08-17 ~ odytours.net
DAY ONE & TWO: Chasing L&C in Montana. Imagine your first-night on top of a hill watching premier rivers -the Jefferson, Madison, and Gallatin meandering circuitously before eventually departing united as the Missouri River. You look off into the distance towards the Jefferson River, to a level plain where the Corps camped and Sacajawea (Sacagawea) recognized as the area she had been abducted from during a Minataree raid and carried away to North Dakota. (Her girlfriend escaped en route and fled home.) Tomorrow you will stand at Fortunate Camp where they reunited. Typically unemotional, Lewis noted, "emotions were quite affecting." Looking at the tall grasses and big beaver ponds, you envision 1808, when members John Potts and John Colter returned with the Missouri Fur Company. Potts lost his life and Colter was stripped naked by the Blackfeet and told to run. George Drewyer also lost his life here two more years later in 1810, again at the hands of the Blackfeet. You gather in a circle of chairs near the sounds of the Jefferson River as Colter returns from the past to explain to you his great escape. Tonight as the sun sets and the moon rises Allen Pinkham great, great, grandnephew of Chief Joseph, and descendant of Red Bear (mentioned in the Journals) will recite to you the Creation Story of the Nez Perce. On your last tour day, we'll take you to its birthmark "the Heart of the Monster." Learn more by visiting our website, or come join us on location - lots more fun!

Can't wait to see this. Many of my friends were involved in its creation. Then next July 7, 2019, Odyssey's summer tour - Lewis & Clark, and the River of No Return begins by taking you inside the L&C journals on location in Sacajawea's homeland near Dillon, MT, over Lemhi Pass, and on into Salmon Idaho where you will enjoy an evening with the Lemhi-Shoshone. You will hear music by a descendant of Chief Tendoy, learn about the Lemhi-Shoshone people (Sacajawea's home tribe) and enjoy a traditional dinner, music, and dancing prepared by descendants of Chief Camehwait (Sacajawea's brother). There are many spellings and pronunciations for her name. Sacajawea is how the people of Idaho like to see and pronounce her name. Many scholars of the L&C journals believe it was pronounced Sa-ca-ga-wea. Lewis wrote this in his journal. I lean towards the prior. - well because I am from Idaho, my kids went to Sacajawea schools, and our friend Rose Anne Abrahamson (who teaches 7 languages) has a pretty convincing argument on the pronunciation of her great aunt's name. The fun and the debates continue. ... then on to a six-day river float into the River of No Return Wilderness Area, upon take-out you arrive Nez Perce country and explore the L&C journals on location with our Nez Perce gentleman friend Allen Pinkham (a descendant of Red Bear in the L&C journals). It is great to read the stories on location and also hear the Native American oral history handed down also. Too much fun! We want all of you to come! Please let me know if you have an interest. Hoping to complete ALL the details this week. In the meantime ~ excited to watch this film! ~ enjoy!

It is my great pleasure and humbled joy to present to you one of the most spectacular concept-art pieces I have ever seen. To have a beautiful depiction, such as this, representing Sacajawea to the world, is all I've ever hoped for. Marcia K Moore has taken the story of Sacajawea and captured the essence of the journey in one powerfully emotional vision.

Ladies and gentlemen, here is the official poster of SACAJAWEA, The Windcatcher. Please tell us how you feel about it and share it with your friends! Then visit our new website and fill out the contact form to be added to our exclusive list. We want to keep you updated on everything we're doing because things are absolutely heating up! Get involved, stay connected and be a part of this journey with us. This is going to be the ride of a lifetime! ONWARD!

Great show! Great description on how our government is set up to govern itself too. Fun while enlightening. Hope you enjoy!
