Transpertation

The Eskimo people have many ways to travel the icy lands. The Eskimos used dogs for transportation. The type of dog the native used in the artic are Husky. The was a strong dog that would pull a sled about 20 mph with. The way they traveled with the dogs and they would attach them to the sled and hook the dogs together and the mushier would stand on the back of the sled and try not to fall off and because the sleds were pulled by dogs they could go over ice and snow. These sled that could stand up in any weather were made of wood that was build of trees. There were many other ways to build sleds they would use whale mouth and animal bone. As the Eskimo left and came back they left landmarks to help them find where they are. They would leave landmarks like tree marking. Like with a knife they would make a line. Bushes they would cut a branch and then leave and find it again. On long trips the dogs became pack animals and would carry all the heavy stuff. All the died food, bait and supplies was in the dogs back. When the Eskimos where lost and it was night they would look up at the sky and look at the stars. So if they wanted to go north and they were lost they would find the North Star. Then they would know every direction and the compass rose.
