Greek wine varied from dark, inky black to tawny to nearly clear. The colour of wine is determined by the skins - leave the skins in and you get red, leave them out and you get white. The colour of the grape doesn't matter - what you do with the skins does.
Mountain men were primarily motivated by profit, trading Amerindians (and sometimes trapping) for beaver and other skins and selling the skins, although some few were more interested in exploring the West and traded solely to support their passion. p.s. Taylor did this lol :)

Yes, they can fit into a beaver, if you skin the beaver and then explode it a couple times, then sew it back together, do this with about 10 beavers and then you are set to go on a lake and then drown in beaver skins...

Mountain men were trappers and explorers who roamed the North American Rocky Mountains from about 1810 to the early 1840s. Although primarily of Canadian or American origin, mountain men were of many ethnic, social and religious backgrounds. These men were primarily motivated by profit, trapping beaver and selling the skins, although some were more interested in exploring the West. An approximate 3,000 men ranged the mountains in the window between 1820 and 1840, the peak beaver harvesting period. While there were many free trappers, most mountain men were employed by fur companies. The life of a company man was almost militarized. The men had mess groups, hunted and trapped in brigades and always reported to the head of the trapping party. NOVANET-young american trappers and traiders on the rocky mountain

Try a beaver and a canoe, maybe a beaver paddling a canoe. If you wanted it to be more accurate you could have a stack of beaver skins in York Boat with several Scots rowing. Or a couple of trees on the bank of a river will do.
HBC (Hudson Bay Company) used beaver skins as a form of currency between the Natives. Beaver skin because it was the most prized fur.
