| Nisga'a made
several different styles of snowshoes. They made long
snowshoes for walking on ice and short snowshoes for
walking in the forests. They also made medium sized for
general purpose snowshoes. On icey slopes snow shoes were
somtimes used like skies. Snow shes were often made from maple. The wood was steamed and bent until it reached correct shape. Webbing was made from strips of leather or from cedar or spruce bark string. |
