What animal did Lewis and Clark newly discover during their 1804 expedition up Old Baldy in Nebraska?
Old Baldy (Lynch, Nebraska) Old Baldy, also known as the Tower, is a hill located near the village of Lynch, in Boyd County, in the northern part of the state of Nebraska in the Midwestern United States. It was visited by the Lewis and Clark Expedition on their way up the Missouri River in 1804; nearby, they discovered a colony of prairie dogs, an animal previously unknown to scientists.
Great Falls (Missouri River waterfall) Great Falls (also called Grand Falls or Big Falls) is a major waterfall located on the Missouri River in western Montana in the United States. It is the lowermost and largest of the eponymous Great Falls of the Missouri, at 87 ft high and up to 900 ft wide at peak flow. Although the falls used to flow powerfully year-round, most of the water is now diverted to the 60 megawatt hydroelectric plant of upstream Ryan Dam, reducing it to a trickle in the summer months. Grand Falls was named by William Clark of the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1805.
