Over the years, we have had the good fortune of learning the craft from Ed Moody, who was a master sled builder, and Pauloosie Kooniliusie, an Inuk Hunter from Qikitarjuaq. All of our sleds use traditional joinery and lashings for flexibility and strength. We can help you build a toboggan or basket sled for travel by dog team or a quamatik for hauling freight with your snow-machine.

Sled building workshops vary from 4 to 8 days in length depending on the size and type of sled. Contact us for scheduling a workshop in the spring, summer or fall.
My time with you these past weeks has meant a lot to me. I am so grateful for all the bush wisdom and world wisdom you both embody and I feel blessed to have received some part of what you have to offer. I feel myself at a critical life junction and I felt the quality of returning to my roots with you. I don’t know what direction my life will take, but I know I will always cherish what I have learned from you and cherish who you are and what you represent.
