About this person
As a U.S. Army officer he led two expeditions through the Louisiana Purchase territory, first in 1805-1806 to reconnoiter the upper northern reaches of the Mississippi River, and then in 1806-1807 to explore the southwest to the fringes of the northern Spanish-colonial settlements of New Mexico and Texas. Pike's expeditions coincided with other Jeffersonian expeditions, including the Lewis and Clark Expedition and the Red River Expedition in 1806.
