      Meat from the hunt, dried or smoked, was frequently ground and mixed with fat and berries to make pemmican, which could be stored. During the hunting season, women picked serviceberries, huckleberries, strawberries, wild cherries, and many other kinds of wild fruits for drying or for combining with meat or salmon in pemmican. Hide bags and bark baskets were used to transport and store berries.
