Clark and one other person went ahead of the others.  They came near a stream and built fires for the others that were still coming.  They didn't have any food and because they were so hungry, Clark named the stream Hungry Creek.  The next day the hunting party found a stray horse. When they got back to camp they butchered, cooked, and ate parts of it.  With the remaining parts of the horse. They hung it on a tree for Lewis and his party.  Later on they had to cross Hungry Creek and that's when Sacagawea found some early blooming plants.  They didn't know what it was so they didn't eat it but kept it in a bag so they could find out later.  We know it today as the Western Spring Beauty.
