The Eastern Woodlands had transportation too. They used snowshoes in the winter. The Eastern Woodlands used birch bark canoes made of the birch bark trees. When the Europeans came, the Eastern Woodlands had horses to ride on and greatly improved travel. Before the horses and the Europeans came, they usually walked.
