Supposedly the Shoshone Indians were the ones that let Lewis and Clark stay during the long cold winter months and probably the ones that sold them horses before they went to the St. Lawrence R. I believe that the Lewis and Clark expedition wintered at the Mandan Village. If memory serves the Shoshone connection was Sacogawea. The expedition may have gotten horses from the Nez Pierce. In regard to the Journals of the expedition there is a nice version edited by Bernard de Voto that used to be available in paperback. I am certain that the expedition went to the Columbia River. The most well known Saint Lawrence River (there may be others) begins at the eastern end of Lake Ontario and disgorges into the Atlantic Ocean.
the explorers spent their first winter with the Mandan tribe.
the mean ones
The first Indian tribes to council with Lewis and Clark were the Mandan and Hidatsa tribes in present-day North Dakota. The explorers exchanged gifts with the tribes, including beads, cloth, mirrors, and other trinkets.
In Camp Wood, Fort Catosp and Fort Mandan were some tribes Lewis and Clark stayed with for the winter?
helping lewis and clark by translating with other indian tribes.
The Indians helped Lewis and Clark by providing them with food, supplies, guidance, and valuable information on the terrain and wildlife they encountered during their expedition. Many Indian tribes also offered friendship and assistance in navigating unfamiliar territories.

Sacagewea helped them by pointing in the right direction. Lewis and Clark did not know which way to go so they asked the Indian, Sacagewea. She must have been a genuis! that is crap, sacagewea and her french husband Toussaint Charbonneau accompanied Lewis and Clark on much of their journey. she helped in translation chains between the corps of discovery and the tribes they encountered. she was kidnapped as a child by rival Indians and was the sister of one of the great Indian chiefs.
It was very interesting for the two of them and their team. Thomas Jefferson sent Lewis and Clark out to explore "The West" which was the Louisana Purchase territory. They encountered different Indian tribes. Sacagewea helped them in the journey as a guide translator and she gave them advice on what to eat and not eat and such.

Sacagawea was a Shoshone woman who guided the Lewis and Clark expedition
Yes because she was able to speak to the different Indian tribes, and she was later the only way they survived the winter crossing the Rocky Mountains because be total coincidences they meet with her own tribe and got horses
