I ordered my bark from a canoe builder. (The typical use of this bark is for the skin of canoes.) So I don't know how to harvest it. It looked like someone just cut all the way around a tree on two spots about 2 1/2" feet apart, then cut vertically from the top cut to the bottom and peeled the bark off the tree in one sheet.Originally Posted by MontanaMoose
As for it being slippery when wet, I don't know. I haven't had it on the water yet. I don't think it will be a problem though.
