The Paiutes, Gosiutes and some Shoshones used a brushwood shelter today called "wickiup". These varied in size but most were small and all were intended as very temporary shelters.
Dead wood or branches were used to form a simple framework, with sagebrush or other brushwood or dry grass as a covering - sometimes with trade blankets thrown over the top. Some used mats made from plant stems tied together.
