Default Care of bear hide!

My nephew shot a bear in michigan last year. We skinned it & were told to salt the hide & then freeze it until it could be brought in. This did not make sense to me as it seems the salt would keep the hide from freezing; thats why roads are salted in the winter. Does anyone know if this was the correct thing to do? I think it should have been frozen without the salt.
