He was asked If he could not have
made better progress by using canoes.

canvas canoes with so large party, and
that he was satisfied that his method Of
establishing series of relay stations was
the best He pointed out that hansen in
his dash had only single companion,
and the two were able TO cross the open
fioes in their canvas canoes
