When did this tractor operate?

The tractor is from the 1920s or 1930s, I think. Where the tractor photograph was taken I don't know - perhaps the Keno, Mayo area. It looks like the sled is packed with gas cans. I believe this photograph was taken by a Yukon oldtimer

It looks like the sled is packed with gas cans.

I believe this photograph was taken by a Yukon oldtimer, Mickey McCarthy, who took many interesting photographs in this time period.

They probably hauled the mail around the Yukon with rigs like this.

I wonder if there is anyone still around that used to work on or with these tractors?

The photo is from my collection.
