The Mojave usually shade roofs caught or Mars for cold weather the houses have said while they would cover the walls and drift poles with grass and mud.

They also make clay pots for storing food and water and for cooking. And the hot desert people did not need to wear many clothes, but inner part of the willow tube was used for closing. Mojave men and women wear their hair long teething it with a mixture of reddish mud and SAP from willow bark. From the hopi to the east they traded for blankets when the weather became colder.
