  Wednesday 20th of August 1806 a violent hard rain about day light this 
  morning. all wet except myself and the indians. we embarked a little after 
  Sun rise wind moderate and ahead. we proceeded on at meridn. passed the 
  enterance of Cannonball river imediately above is the remains of a large 
  Sieoux encampment which appears to have been made this Spring. at 3 P M 
  passed the enterance of Wardepon River Saw great number of wolves on the 
  bank Some Buffalow & Elk, tho not so abundant as near the River 
  Rochejhone. passed the place where we left the last encampment of Ricaras 
  in the fall 1804 and encamped on a Sandbar from the N# E# Side, having 
  made 8 miles only, the wind blew hard all day which caused the waves to 
  rise high and flack over into the Small Canoes in Such a manner as to 
  employ one hand in throwing the water out. The plains begin to Change 
  their appearance the grass is turning of a yellow colour. I observe a 
  great alteration in the Corrent course and appearance of this pt# of the 
  Missouri. in places where there was Sand bars in the fall 1804 at this 
  time the main Current passes, and where the current then passed is now a 
  Sand bar Sand bars which were then naked are now covered with willow 
  Several feet high. the enteranc of Some of the Rivers & Creeks Changed 
  owing to the mud thrown into them, and a layor of mud over Some of the 
  bottoms of 8 inches thick.
