They followed the trail of the expedition by car and towboat, by canoe and rubber raft, on foot and on horseback. They sweltered under a Missouri summer sun, shivered on the Pacific coast in winter--and celebrated a North Dakota Christmas with buffalo meat broiled over a blazing cottonwood-log fire.
