Their voyage, which would become the most famous journey of exploration in American history, would last more than 2 years and take them in excess of 2,700 miles beyond the United State's existing borders to the source of the Missouri in the Rocky Mountains and across that forbidding range all the way to the Pacific Ocean.".
