yes dugouts
Actually, no, they didn't use dugout canoes. To cross smaller streams, they would use fords. To cross larger rivers (e.g., Missouri and Yellowstone), they would build what is often called a bull-boat. This was made by creating a bowl-shaped structure of flexible branches (usually cottonwood) covered by the skin of a bison (buffalo). Since these were temporary craft, the hide was often raw (untanned, with the hair left on), with rawhide strapping to bind the hide to the rim of the "bowl". Paddles were make-shift. There are reports of some war-parties (usually horse-raiding groups) which would lash together small rafts of found logs and large branches with straps of rawhide. These rafts were used to keep their clothing, food, and weapons dry while the men would swim alongside, holding onto the raft and swimming -- pushing the raft across the river. There are no reports that I know of relating Blackfeet (Blackfoot) use of rivers for long-distance travel.

Presuming that your great grandmother was half Indian and presuming there are no other lines of Indian in you, that would make your Grandmother 1/4 Indian, your mother 1/8th Indian and yourself 1/16th. Not enough to be called Indian. If your great grandmother was less than half, that would lower those percentages.
