Fish Camp

Families (for centuries) have set up little buildings on the river for their fish camps. When the fish run, they go live here and fish. They catch salmon, beluga whales, seals and even walrus. After the fish run is over, they load up and go home.

All of my kids talk about 'fish camp.' They have some interesting stories. During the summer and fall, the family will camp at these sites while the fish run. They also have these cabins on Bristol Bay, Bering Sea and the Yukon River delta.
This is how they make their living for many in these Bush towns. they also get moose and various animals for fur to make clothing. They pick sea grass from the Bering Sea and make the most beautiful baskets you can imagine.
