Transportation
They used horses, sleds, wagons, boats and covered wagons, but they mostly walked. When they traveled it very slow and hard. The best way for them to travel was by boat in lakes, rivers and oceans. When they traveled far they would use the covered wagon, it is like a house on wheels. They also used the wagon for the crops they harvested and they would take them to the market.
| In the winter it snowed a lot, so they used big sleds because that was it the only thing that could get through the deep snow. They used horses to pull the sled in the winter. It was large enough to hold the average sized family.
When it rained it was very hard to travel because the roads were dirt so when it rained the roads were very muddy. When it did not rain the roads were dusty and dry so it was easy to travel. The coloninest did not travel alot so some people only saw the place where the they were born. And if they did go anywhere else they would walk because it was easiest thing. |
