From November 7, 1804 to April 6, 1805, Lewis and Clark and the other spent their second winter at Fort Mandan. It took about three weeks to build Fort Mandan and settle in. The fort was comfortable and warm, which was good because otherwise the men may not have survived as temperatures dropped to 45 degrees below zero. The Americans would go out to hunt but the cold would force them back in and some suffered from frostbite. Meanwhile, the Mandan were quite friendly to them and they loved to see the corps dance, as they had brought with them a fiddle, tambourine and a horn. It was also during this time that Sacajawea gave birth to her first son by her husband Toussaint Charbonneau on February 11. IZANATOR1: Actually, they spent their FIRST winter at Fort Mandan.
Yes she did. When Lewis and Clark wintered at the present site of Bismarck, North Dakota, there they met Sacagawea and her husband in 1804. Toussaint Charbonneau was interviewed to interpret Hidatsa for the Lewis and Clark expedition, but Lewis and Clark (esp. Clark) were not overly impressed with him. However, Sacagawea his wife spoke Shoshone and Hidatsa, so they hired Charbonneau on November 4, and he and Sacagawea moved into Fort Mandan a week later. Sacagawea was 16 or 17 at this time.
