Only need 1-2 feet behind tails of skis. Should have a cross cord for easy grab to manhandle sled around.

Note knot in cord puts pulling stress on front grommets
No idea how long this will hold up or last but cheap enough to replace carpet every trip.

In deeper soft snow this should mostly run in ski track. On hardpack it will skitter along on downhill side.
Could trim the sides to make it narrower for ski track.

Idea is to pull heavy items on way up - roll up carpet and bag and attach to pack on way down. Will have less bulk without food.

Can have a cord off back so second skier could help keep sled in track in difficult terrain.
