Imagine that you are a european fur trader in north america in the 1600s. which type of transportation will best you as a fur trader?

I think the best way to transport it is by ships.

Actually the best way to transfer goods in north america is by Railway. But the railway just started to developed in 1800s , so that is not an option. Transporting the goods using carriage is also not an option since it would be unlikely that the horses could survive the cold journey.

hope this helps
