Page Range: 143 – 148
Ferdinand V. Hayden's adamant opposition to military explorations and surveys developed during Hayden's participation in two expeditions commanded by Lieutenant Gouverneur K. Warren in 1856 and 1857. The attitudes formed during those years helped shape Hayden's position in the debates of the 1870's over the future of western exploration and the establishment of a United States Geological Survey.
