These women are at the bison kill site. The one in the back is the director of the site. She is tanning a buffalo hide the Sioux Indian way. First they have to clean off most of the meat and then spread warmed buffalo brain on the hide. This puts collagen into the hide which will keep the leather soft. The women were still scraping off the last of the meat. This is very hard work. They offered to let us help. I passed.
