George Carmack Book This was a very interesting read.

Alaska Native Heritage Center Some neat information about Alaska's Native culture. This is a neat place in Anchorage to visit.

More (Wiki) Links on Alaska's Natives

Gifts from the Whales. A neat read about Native whaling in the Arctic. A friend of mine has been in Barrow when they caught and landed one, and said there is nothing else like it. Something I would really like to see!

Great Links & Great Thread Elliot!!! thank you.

And your project of building a wooden kayak is impressive. I have seen some of those & frankly I would be afraid to take it out. I am so rough on kayaks.. the sturdy ones get banged up. I do a lot of down river/rocks kayaking & I guess the wooden like you will make would be better on lakes/ocean use.

Take pix along the way
