Close Up Of Crews Asking Permission To Land

These are the people of the Pacific Northwest Tribes. While many are dressed in modern casual wear you can also see some traditional clothing including the pointed hats woven from cedar strips. The weaving is so tight that the hats are watertight. Talking with some of the people about their hats they told of the extensive work that is required to make one. They prize them highly for their practical as well as artistic style.
