Welcome to another achievement guide for The Long Dark! This time, we’re tackling one of the most grueling yet satisfying achievements in the game: Wrapped in Furs. To unlock it, you must sleep in a bear skin bedroll while wearing a wolf skin coat, deer skin boots, and rabbit skin mittens. Here’s how to do it.

Requirements and Preparation

Before you start hunting, crafting, and sleeping your way to success, ensure you have the following:

• Pleasant Valley unlocked
• A rifle with plenty of rounds
• A substantial food and water stockpile

You’ll also need a workbench and a safe, supply-rich location to do long-term crafting. Signal Hill in Pleasant Valley is a great choice.

Materials Checklist

To complete this achievement, you need to craft four different items. The animal requirements are:

• 3 Deer (Deer Skin Boots)
• 4 Wolves (Wolf Skin Coat)
• 4 Rabbits (Rabbit Skin Mittens)
• 2 Bears (Bear Skin Bedroll)
• 16 Guts total (used in all crafted items)

Hunting Strategy

Deer:

• Look for already dead deer or use wolves to kill them. Wolves often get distracted eating the deer, making them easy targets afterward.

Wolves:

• Keep to their known patrol areas.
• Use stealth or take headshots. Wolves don’t respawn quickly, so be prepared to travel.

Rabbits:

• While snares work, using your rifle is faster.
• Ammo is scarce though, so don’t waste shots—reload if needed.

Bears:

• Only two needed, but they are tough.
• Best found near the edges of Pleasant Valley.
• Expect to use 3+ rifle shots per bear.
• If you’re mauled, heal and track the blood trail. Bears bleed out over time.

Crafting Process

Once you’ve harvested all required hides and guts, it’s time to craft. You’ll need:

• A sewing kit or fishing tackle
• Basic tools (to halve crafting time)
• A safe crafting location (e.g., Signal Hill)

Item Crafting Times (approx.):

• Bear Skin Bedroll: 25 hours
• Wolf Skin Coat: 50 hours
• Deer Skin Boots: 25 hours
• Rabbit Skin Mittens: 30 hours

Tip: Craft in 12-13 hour chunks, sleeping and eating between sessions. For water, melt snow over a fire.

Extra Material Tip:

• The bear skin bedroll also requires 5 cloth. If you’re short, harvest clothes from abandoned houses.

Final Step: Unlock the Achievement

1. Equip the following:
   • Wolf Skin Coat
   • Deer Skin Boots
   • Rabbit Skin Mittens
2. Place the Bear Skin Bedroll on the ground.
3. Sleep in it for at least one hour.
4. Achievement unlocked!

Summary

The Wrapped in Furs achievement is a test of endurance, resourcefulness, and patience. From the dangerous bear hunts to the long, tedious crafting hours, this challenge is not for the faint of heart—but it is one of the most rewarding in The Long Dark.

Stay safe out there, survivor, and good luck on your fur-wrapped journey!
