Buckskinning and Tanning Hides | In the Bush #99

In a survival or preparedness situation, knowing how to process an animal hide could save your life. My friend Tony demonstrates how to buckskin and tan animal hides so you can make your own clothing.

I was in Boy Scouts growing up, but after I turned 18 "adulting' took over and I rarely did any of those activities. After seeing the way the world was going I decided I needed to brush up on my self-reliance and outdoor skills. So in January of 2021 I began hiking out into my woods, building fires, shelters, cooking, and doing other bush activities. I decided for my own benefit I would film and catalog these trips, and track my progress along the way. You are watching me learn in real time.

In this video series you will see me learning survival skills and enjoying nature in various forms including; bushcrafting, fire making, campfire cooking, fishing, hunting, and foraging. In many videos you will be invited along for the journey as I camp in every possible environment from under the stars, to bushcraft shelters, to tent camping and even some vanping in my van and luxury camping in campers.

In the fall of 2021 I built a small cabin in one of my favorite locations. Many of the videos take place there as well.

Big thank you to Brandon "Cooper" Wilson for the "In the Bush" graphic
