Grandfather used to study the stars. Every night
I'd go out with him, sit on the chopping block and
watch. He would tell me the phase of the moon, the
tides, the weather forecast.
-Elenore McMullen, Alutiiq/Sugpiaq Elder, Port Graham
There are many ways of knowing. Long before radar
and radio, Native people interpreted this world. Survival
still hinges on knowledge of the region's mercurial
weather conditions.
