They ate whatever they could find in the wild. As their knowledge grew, so did their diet. Berries and herbs/plants were a part of their diet. But mammals they could catch were part of their diet. Also although their job mainly kept them in the mountains, they ate buffalo when opportunity arose. (This was not often, as they didn't tend to venture onto the plains preferring the mountains as they were better/ more plentiful trapping areas).
