History of the Expedition Under the Command of Captains Lewis and Clark: To the Sources of the Missouri, Thence Across the Rocky Mountains and Down the River Columbia to the Pacific Ocean
by Meriwether Lewis, William Clark"Our camp which is twenty-five miles from that of last night, is situated opposite to the upper entrance of Quicksand river: a little below a stream from the north empties itself into the Columbia, near the head of Whitebrant island. Not being able to learn any Indian name, we called it Seal river, from the abundance of those animals near its mouth."
