    Athabaskan Village

    August 24, 2017 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C

    We rotate around 4 aspects of life in an Athabaskan Village.
    The fishing camp shows us how they set the fish trap then dried and smoked the salmon.
    The trapper's cabin shows us the various animals they hunted and how they used each part of the animal.
    The hunting camp shows us 3 types of dwelling depending on the permanence of the site. Snowshoes, canoes, and baskets made from animal products are on display.
    The fur cabin shows us how they made clothing from animal hides.
    All of the narration is done by young Athabaskan students who do a fabulous job.
