They had:
1 Keeled boat light strong at least 60 feet in length her burthen equal to 8 tons
1 Large Wooden canoe
They also had horses, walked, climbed, and used pirogues. "Pirogues" is a French word meaning that they tied smaller canoes together to make a kind of raft. Their horses were certainly used as pack animals in the rough country, and for riding when they crossed the flat plains.

∙ 9y agoThey used Four different kinds. They started out with one Keelboat (their keelboat was fifty-five in length and eight feet wide and was able to carry twelve tons of supplies), two flat-bottom boats called pirogues, and two types of canoes. One type of canoe they used was made from a large tree trunk. The second was made by stretching an animal hide (buffalo) over a wooded frame. Also, on April 7,1905, Lewis and Clark sent the keelboat load with specimens including a live prairie dog and a crew of twelve back to St. Louis and than on to Jefferson in D.C.
