Mr. Hunt and the fabulous plan
Departing St. Louis on 11 Mar, 1811, Wilson Hunt led the next great expedition west after Lewis and Clark under the auspices of the John Jacob Astor "Pacific Fur Co.". The purpose was to achieve a monopoly on the furs of the Oregon country and to wrest control of same away from the British dominated Northwest Company. The scheme included barter and trade with the Indian tribes and trade with Russian America and China as well.
