It takes a lot of practice to get Kaden in and out of the amouti. There is actually a pouch behind the hood for him to rest. As you can see, he lies vertically against my back and travels with me like that. It's very warm in there for him, especially because I need to put extra blankets in there to support him because he's slipped on a few occassions onto his back! I just have to pull the hood up around my neck to protect him from the elements when outside.

Amouti's come in different styles according to the community. Men have their own versions as well seeing as this is the snuggly of the north!
