Answer:

A find a water route from the Mississippi River to the Atlantic

Step-by-step explanation:

This is correct because before Lewis and Clark went on there expedition no one had a good way of getting boats across although they didnt find a water route this was there original assignment to find before they discovered all the other cool things.
