Synopsis:

It was the dawn of a nation - a time before the American West became known as the frontier, and little was known about what lay within. Two captains, courageous in spirit and unyielding in their dedication to their mission, led 31 people, including one woman and her infant son, to the Pacific Ocean and back. Audiences will experience the danger and beauty of the unknown West as it unfolded before the eyes of Lewis and Clark.

"All history lessons should be as enthralling. [This] dramatic recreation of the epochal Lewis and Clark expedition -- an undertaking that was in its day (1803-1806) equivalent in difficulty and danger to a trip to the moon -- represents a truly spectacular use of the IMAX format. -Steve Simel, TV Guide.com
