I'm currently compiling a list of plant and land findings, but someone else provided an extensive list of animals that Lewis and Clark encountered. Also, someone has provided the number of plants found:

They considered the grizzly bear to be the most "terrifying" and "exciting of all the animals they encountered. However, it wasn't the appearance of these animals that really surprised them, but the shear numbers in which they roamed.
Successes: Categorized 122 new animals and 178 plants, mapped the geography, and achieved friendlier relations with the native.
Failure: They did not find a route to the Pacific Ocean completely by river.

Lewis clark was first to discover Washington no joke!
Dinner passage
By the end of the expedition, Lewis and Clark found and categorized 122 new animals and 178 plants, mapped the geography, and achieved friendlier relations with the natives. However, they did not find an all water route to the Pacific Ocean.List of plants discovered: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_plant_life_did_Lewis_and_Clark_find_on_their_expeditionList of animals discovered: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_animal_life_did_Lewis_and_Clark_encounter_during_their_expedition

Some of the tools Lewis and Clark used to make their maps were the compass, the octant, and the sextant. In all, the Lewis and Clark Expedition created around 100 maps.
In Camp Wood, Fort Catosp and Fort Mandan were some tribes Lewis and Clark stayed with for the winter?
