When I used a sled in the Porkies I only had ropes to pull it rather than a rigid harness system. A rigid system is certainly preferable, but I managed the hills, both up and down, with a minimal amount of swearing. Anything beats humping a winter load on your back. In the porkies in the winter, true with most places I would imagine, you do not need to go far into the bush to get away from nearly everyone.
