He travelled along and documented the western coast of mainland Mexico, the Colorado River mouth, the Baja California Peninsula coasts, and the present day West Coast of the United States in California and Oregon. 〔(Biodiversitylibrary.org: ''Exploration du territoire de l'Orégon, des Californies, et de la mer Vermeille'' )〕 〔; Google Books.〕 〔(Google Books: "Old California Houses: Portraits and Stories" ); 'Fort Ross, a count and a princess' chapter, pgs. 4−10.〕 While stationed at Yerba Buena (present day San Francisco), he traveled inland to see the Rancho New Helvetia agricultural colony of John Sutter.
