Dry Mountain Tanning

Dry Mountain Tanning is a family-owned, hunter-operated business based in Santaquin, Utah, serving customers since 1999. The company provides tanning, hide preparation, skinning, and taxidermy services for North American big game, with offerings for animals including deer, elk, antelope, bear, bison, moose, sheep, and more. Customers can request capes, hides, life-size or half-size preparation, soft tanning, and selected taxidermy mounts.

Tanning and preparation are included with taxidermy work, and the shop is currently accepting limited taxidermy orders for select animals. Turnaround for tanning is typically 30 to 45 days. Dry Mountain emphasizes quality over quantity and asks customers to contact the shop before dropping off an order.

Animals should be skinned promptly and kept cold or frozen; hides should not be salted. The business prefers cash but also accepts Venmo and personal checks. Military members and first responders receive 10% off, and hunters under 18 receive free deer or elk hide preparation.

The shop is open weekdays in Santaquin
