Red River Cart

A Red River Cart on display at the Indian Head Museum in Indian Head in the Qu'Appelle Valley in Saskatchewan Canada

 

The first Red River Carts were constructed by the Metis in the early 1800's from wood, rawhide and sinew. They could transport heavy loads of furs to the Fur Traders. These carts were drawn by horse or by oxen.
