Excerpt from The Beaver, Vol. 2: A Journal of Progress; June, 1922
By far the greater number of canoes are of the first 'class, by reason of the uses to which they are put. A canoe 20 to 30 feet in length would be an encumbrance to an Indian hunter, for alone he could not carry it over the portages, and too unwieldy in all his operations; for although Indians travel in groups when moving to and from their hunting grounds each family has its own conveyance. A man may be the possessor of two canoes if the house hold is a large one. But it is surprising what an amount of truck an Indian can stow away in a small canoe.
