		Sacagawea’s vote, as well as the vote of the Clark’s manservant York, were counted equally with those of the captains and the men.
		Sacagawea had yet to see the ocean, and after willfully asking Clark, she was allowed to accompany the group to the sea.

	PBS - THE WEST - Sacagawea
		Sacagawea carried her infant on a cradleboard as the "Corps of Discovery" headed upriver in April, 1805.
		When Sacagawea arrived to serve as interpreter, she found the band was led by her older brother, Cameahwait, who had become chief on their father's death.
		Deeply moved by this reunion, Sacagawea might have taken advantage of such an astounding coincidence to return to her people, but instead she helped the explorers secure the horses they needed and journeyed on with them and her husband to the Pacific.

	Chief Washakie Foundation
		Sacagawea, a young Indian mother and her infant boy accompanied "a party of men" on an arduous journey across the continent to the Pacific Ocean and back again.
		As the centennial of the expedition approached, however, interest stirred and Sacagawea emerged as an equal partner in discovery, an inspiration for women everywhere--and, eventually, as the third member of what became the unmistakable triumvirate of Lewis, Clark and Sacagawea, infant strapped on her back, as she literally pointed the way west for the explorers.
		But Russell's Sacagawea, turning her conventionally pretty face towards the two captains and smiling winsomely, looks suspiciously like the other Indian princesses who were a staple of early twentieth-century advertising and calendar art.

	Lewis & Clark in Montana: Resources for Travel Writers
		Sacagawea was barely 14 years old when she was traded to Toussaint Charbonneau, a mixed-blood French fur trader who lived among the Mandans.
		Regardless of how the captains felt toward her, it was Sacagawea who was credited with saving much of the expedition’s scientific instruments, specimens and even the captains’ journals when the boat Charbonneau was steering almost capsized on May 14, 1805, on the upper Missouri.
		Sacagawea died shortly after giving birth to her second child, a girl she named Lisette, in 1812 at Ft. Manuel, a fur-trading post located in what is now present-day South Dakota.

		Sacagawea (Sacajawea, Sakakawea) was born in a Northern Shoshone village in the vicinity of the Lemhi River valley in what is today Idaho; it is likely that she was a member of the Agaiduka or Salmon Eater band of the Shoshone tribe.
		Sacagawea's geographical knowledge was limited to the region near her homeland in the Three Forks area of the upper Missouri River; here she recognized landmarks and provided some direction to Lewis and Clark.
		Sacagawea has become an appealing figure in the history of the American West, and she continues to capture the romantic imagination of both Indian and non-Indian Americans.

		Sacagawea went across the pass to her brother's village in the Lemhi valley, while Clark and a few men went north to scout the Salmon River to see if it would be possible to reach the Columbia River and the Pacific.

		The reason I use the Sacagawea spelling, pronounced "Sah-KAH-gah-wee-ah," is that this is a Hidatsa name, the one she was given as a child around the Knife River area along the Missouri, and is the way her name is pronounced even today by the Hidatsa people.

	Beaverhead Rock
		Some local people say that Sacagawea misspoke, that the so-called Beaverhead Rock resembles the animal only by the hyperextension of one's imagination, and that a rocky promontory opposite Rattlesnake Cliffs is the one she must have meant.
		It is unlikely that Sacagawea could have been mistaken, and Clark's bearings, taken on August 13, 1805, positively identify Beaverhead Rock as being a few miles south of Twin Bridges.
		Furthermore, a mountain man's journal of 1831 also places the well-known landmark near the mouth of the Ruby River, as does Montana pioneer Granville Stuart in about 1865.
