Perhaps the most important part of the sledgetraveller's outfit is the sledge itself.
It began with a continual supply and resupply system on an annual basis and continued with plans for depots for sledge journeys.
The factor which cannot be without important consequences on the hunter's activities is the existence of sledges drawn by dogs.
The heavy construction of the sledge might indicate it was used to transport heavy items such as elephant seal oil barrels.
This system went beyond the artefacts to the individual practices, such as how to stow equipment on the sledge.
Later, the men released the surviving animals to follow the sledge, or even carried them on it.
While bad weather, poor ice, and sledging problems occurred, he was able to deal with them without suffering major disasters.
No item of equipment and food escaped his careful attention, and, in particular, the very robust dog sledges.
