Comments Now underwater. Camp Fortunate was a turning point for Lewis & Clark�s exploration. It was here that they met the Shoshone Indians, and Sacajawea was reunited with her people (she was kidnapped by another tribe around the age of 12). They sampled salmon for the first time. Most important of all, they were able to stock up for the trip over the Rockies, and to the Pacific.
