yes they were prepared for the most part. they had many maps. they had the nicholas king map which was the map of the aerican northwest. They had the david thomson map of north america. They had the lewis and clarks printed map and the David Burr map of the United staites of north america. They also had guns and ammunition, food, clothing, navagational instroments, and large numbers of goods to trade with the indians. to cary their corps and cargo lewis had a keelboat built a 55 foot shallow draft vessel which would carry 12 tons of cargo. They also brough2 Pirogues (open boats) Square sail (also called a broad sail) 35 Oars and 2 Horses. Some of the clothes that they brough were 45 Flannel shirts. 20 Coats. 15 Frocks. Shoes. Woolen pants. 15 Blankets. Knapsacks. 30 Stockings. 15 Pairs of wool overalls. Some otehr things they brought were medicine, books like a dictionary, and camping equitment. All together Lewis spent $2324 on just equitment.

Clark says that It requires 4 deer, or an elk and a deer, or one buffalo to supply us for 24 hours." Additionally, 193 pounds of "portable soup" were ordered as an emergency ration when stores ran out and game was scarce or unavailable. During their voyage they survived very well. They did this because. Every day they woujld kill animals to eat. Also, they walked very much so they would kill animals and make there own shoes from the skins of them about every 3 days. They ate buffalo for breakfast, and they liked elk.
