Brown wooden snow shoes with leather latticework--the outside edge of the shoes are lined with alternating blue and red tufts of yarn.
Pair of snowshoes. Each is separated into three sections by two wooden boards. The two end sections are filled webbing of thin lengths of skin. Centre section is of knotted, thicker skin thong. There is a hole at one end of centre section. The two ends of each snowshoe are held together by metal wire and nails.
Pair of elliptically shaped brown wooden snowshoes; both ends are pointed, with the front curving sharply upwards. Three wooden crossbars separate the rawhide mesh-like latticework into three main sections, with the latticework in the central section being of a thicker construction. Two straps made from long strips of cotton are tied to the rawhide in the central section. Small tufts of multicoloured fibres ring the outside of the frame.
Long elongated compressed oval snowshoes with a dark brown wood frame within which there is fibre mesh netting at both pointed ends and skin mesh netting in between separated by a piece of wood. One end curls upward.
Dark brown pair of snowshoes in beaver-tail shape with long, thick skin ties. Skin latticework is tightly wound and divided into three different sections--the toe, the main body, and the tail behind the heel--as divided by two cross-bars.
Pair of adult snowshoes; bent wood frames with (moose ?) hide lacing (untanned). Mid-section wider weave than front and back section. Front cross-baton holds heavier lashing for front toe hold. Back baton also holds lashing. Hide strips wound around sides at mid-section hitch made from 1 inch lamp wick. Back section of shoe frames are nailed together. Tufts of red wool attached to front and sides as decorative elements. Traces of white paint at the front tips of the shoes.
Pair of snowshoes, each made of two light brown wood sticks, stripped of bark and bent into a U-shape. The two U's are bound together facing each other, the ends overlapping and forming an ellipse. The binding is composed of four strips of light yellow wood, steam-bent and knotted, one around each end of each U, and two kinds of plant fibre cord, one used as lashing across centre of ellipse and the other loosely tied around the former. Between the overlapping ends of the U's are wood wedges.
Two piece wood frame construction with three wooden crossbars. Pointed heel and toe, with the toe sharply bent, starting at the top cross-bar. Toe piece is open, otherwise hexagonal hide netting covers the spaces between the bars. Centre netting is attached around the frame, over cloth and leather. Diagonal strips cross over and under the horizontal strips in all sections, except adjacent to the toe hole. The section above and below the toe and foot section attach through the holes in the frame, to the outside. A hide strip runs the length of the outside, for these sections. The bent toe section has a hide strip which attaches through the side, on the inside to the bottom of the frame. Hide strips hold the toe and tail ends through holes in the top and the inside of the frame. 'b' has copper wire at the bottom lashing.
