The Miwok people, indigenous to Northern California, primarily used canoes and baskets for transportation and carrying goods rather than travois. Travois, traditionally associated with Plains Native American cultures for transporting heavy loads by horses, were not a common feature in Miwok culture due to their geographic environment and lifestyle. Instead, the Miwoks relied on their natural surroundings and available resources for their transportation needs.

Cherokee Indians , as you can guess walked everywhere . They used canoes for fishing , they also used Travois (pulled by dogs). Travois use was limited and debated. They pretty much did this until Spanish Explorers brought horses. ;)

No, the Miwoks lived in northern California, not in the desert.
The Siksika put their belonging on the travois and the dogs dragged it.So the Travois is really important to the Siksika.
