Tanning My First Black Bear Hide – A Total Beginner's Journey!

I have black bear hides everywhere-stacked in the freezer, drying around the cabin… it's time to do something with them! To free up space (and honor this incredible resource), I'm taking on my first-ever animal hide tanning. No experience, no expert guidance-just me, some shampoo, and a whole lot of trial and error. This is Part 1 of a multi-episode series where I learn how to tan black bear hides from start to finish. This is a raw, hands-on learning process as I dive into the world of hide tanning right here in the Alaskan wilderness. Wish me luck-let's see if I can turn these hides into something useful! In this episode, I'm sorting through the hides and giving them a good wash to prep for pickling. The next steps will cover fleshing, pickling, softening, and finishing-so make sure to follow along! 🔔 Subscribe and turn on notifications so you don't miss the next part! I'll be learning as I go, so if you have any tanning tips, drop them in the comments. #BearHideTanning #AlaskaViking #DIYTanning #SelfSufficiency #WildernessSkills #OffGridLife
