Battle on Showshoes, 1758 - French & Indian Wars
Sleds were especially useful for evacuating the wounded after a battle.
When the sleds were unavailable another method which was commonly used by the Rangers and was inspired by an Indian technique, was the use of a “tumpline”.
The Indian method was to carry the injured man by piggy-back by having him sit on a pack or blanket tied with a tumpline. The wide part of the line lying across the carrier’s forehead.
The Iroquois were known to carry their wounded in this manner “hundreds of leagues”.
