After I got back from Alaska, many people wanted to know what Eskimos look like. Not surprisingly, they look a lot like us! Racially I think they look quite similar to Asians, but Alaskan Natives are not Asian at all, and would be quite offended if you said they were! Here are some kids I found playing on that metal road that was pictured earlier. The coat that the girl is wearing is traditional, and in winter will be lined with fur from the caribou. Caribou have hollow hair, so it is perfect to trap body heat and warm pockets of air. This picture was taken in Shishmaref.
