Lewis and Clark actually did have maps to help them navigate their way to the Pacific Ocean. Also, there were already plenty of French trappers living amongst the wilderness to assist them. They had brought with them copies of Antoine Simon Le Page du Pratz's "History of Louisiana", tables for finding longitude and latitude and a map of the Great Bend of the Missouri River.
