It is so nice to see a young man (wouldn't dare calling him a boy)doing the same thing as what generations upon generations before him has done to put food on the table. Hurrah for Uyaana!
Cathy, I am such a city girl:) I thought Trish said they could not be killed right there in town. I remember the sound being full of them when I was up there.
"Under the ice and beneath the gravel are remnants of those whom came before. This region has a history that extends beyond 40,000 years of human history. Nomadic and seasonal, a stoic anchor of habitation of when the 'land' extended to Siberia's shore in grass and brush. Trails crossing Kotzebue when Kotzebue was no where near the sea, by horse and Mammoths as lions kept the pace. So, just under this seal hunter is a 'record' of not just recent ancestry of cultures but times unimaginable prehistory."
