All images on this site were taken by me, Lyn Topinka - see my "Self Portrait" - with mainly Nikon and Sony digital cameras. Some images were taken with Olympus or Fuji digital cameras. All images are copyrighted and not to be used without permission. Large image size is 640 x 480 pixels, and around 100K to 150K give-or-take. Some images presented on this website have been cropped for best visual composition, and color has sometimes been heightened for best impact. The "Penny Postcards" are all in the collection of this web author and again, not to be downloaded or used without permission.

My own "Corps of Discovery" -- As with any major expedition, it takes a team to make the journey successful. Lewis and Clark's "Corps of Discovery" consisted of themselves, 32 men, one woman, a baby, and Captain Lewis's newfoundland dog named "Seaman". I too had my own "Corps of Discovery".

Lewis and Clark quotations are from their journals, as presented by Gary Moulton, University of Nebraska Press. For more information on these journals please check out their website.

All attempts have been made to type the quotations exactly as in the Moulton editions, however typing errors introduced by this web author cannot be ruled out. Not all quotations on every locality from every member's journal are included -- those selected were done so based on this website author's interest and free time. If time permits and this website author becomes independently wealthy and no longer has to work at a paying job for a living, more quotations will be added.

Location interpretation from variety of sources, including this website author.
