"The bulk of each caravan consists of pack horses and wagons carrying salt. In most years there are between seventy five and one hundred and fifty animals, twenty to thirty merchants, and a similar number of guards and animal handlers. The number of guards hired each year depends on how restless the Gozyda and Tulwyn are. The trail from Moleryn to Tashal is about 155 leagues long and it takes the caravan about twenty days to complete the journey."
Moleryn article in CGI's Tharda module, 1987
Though the published material says the Great Salt Caravan consists of wagons, the vehicles are probably actually carts. As shown below, only pack animals and horse-drawn carts are capable of making the journey from Moleryn to Tashal in "about twenty days."
The tables below give the average number of days for caravans to make the journey between the indicated points. Note that the times shown assume an uninterrupted journey, with no delays for intermediate stops along the way. They also do not include delays caused by the need for repairs. To determine the time required for a mixed caravan, use the time indicated for the slowest vehicle in the caravan.
