Dirca Palustris (leatherwood)

Tree_Ninja:
I actually just  clicked on the link to the survival website at the bottom. It has some good stuff. The cordage section is great for bow strings.

Marc St Louis:
I've seen that shrub before, seems to like growing near wet areas.  Next time I run across it I'll check it out

There's a guy where we used to live in Mattawa that makes Birch bark canoes.  Instead of using the traditional Spruce roots for binding he uses Leatherwood.
