What does a Cree dog sled made of?

Answer 1

the dog sled is made of bits of drift wood put together. the sled has 2 runners, and planks going across the middle.

The above answer is not correct. The original "qamutiq" was made from frozen fish split longitudinally and laid end-to-end, then wrapped in frozen seal hides which were lashed with strips of more seal hide. These two runners were then kept parallel with pieces of bone or antler which was lashed to each runner. Contact surface between runner and ice/snow was a mixture of mud and moss covered with a glazing of water or urine.

Today, modern "qamutiit" are made of long pieces of dimensional lumber, 2 inches thick by perhaps 10 inches high and of various lengths. The cross pieces are made of smaller pieces of dimensional lumber and everything is lashed together with strips of sealskin. The contact surfaces between the bottom of the wooden runners and the snow/ice are either thin strips of steel or special, thick plastic, the same material as is used in dogsleds below the treel ine.
