what’s the cost of beef in your area? in sitka, alaska a ‘value pack’ of rib steak is $20.79 USD per pound this is why traditional foods are so important to alaska native peoples, because we can’t afford to feed our families with these prices

as the state of alaska gears up to celebrate another ‘alaska day,’ it’s a great time to remind people that russia never owned or had the right to sell stolen indigenous land

can any of you fishery nerds explain to us the impacts of this heavy rain on all the salmon eggs in the creeks? took this photo tonight at starrigavan and there’s whole trees washed down the creek into the bay. makes me wonder how all the salmon eggs are doing in this intense rain

In the vast universe of "things I didn't expect to see but here we are", this past summer, wildfires in Nunavut burned more than twice the area that burned in the Yukon Territory: Yukon Territory: 5,800 ha Nunavut: 14,400 ha #Canada #wildfire @evaholland.bsky.social @jkanadisk.bsky.social

we went looking for bears this afternoon and found over 20! including 6 cubs this playful pair (possibly mating?) splashing around in the water started our adventure off on a high note and it just got better and better from there!

i think the time has come for alaska tribes to start discussing fuel compacts with the state in an effort to excerise tribal sovereignty, lower fuel prices for our communities, and generate revenue to fund our services and programs

beading formline is waaaay easier than drawing it 😮‍💨 got a lot of room for growth here, but if it helps me make awesome regalia in the future, it’s worth the effort and practice (my first hand drawn formline piece)

the salmon are making their way upstream and deep into the forest where they were born. they always find their way home i didn’t hang out too long in this spot because that’s prime real estate for hungry bears and they deserve to enjoy this feast in peace 📍sheet’ká, lingít aaní

the land is enjoying all this rain. even the forest seems to come alive when it rains and the air smells sweeter it’s a good time for us to start asking ourselves serious questions, like: when we going mushroom hunting?

And Alaskans are, of course, broadly approving Ballot Measure 1, which will reinstate campaign contribution limits. It's passing with a frankly impressive 72% of the vote.

Nunapitchuk precinct has failed to open on time for Alaska’s primary, voting advocates say

the air feels still here, in anticipation of something. so still that you can hear the fins slapping and splashes made by the salmon jumping out of the water there’s signs of deer, bear, birds, AND visitors. for real tho—please pick up your trash. this place is too special not to take care of it

vivian korthuis (avcp) is on tribal climate change webinar right now for the terra act and talking about arctic typhoon halong she spoke about how their region expected a superstorm to follow halong and hit 25 of their 56 villages. they discussed evacuating 10,000 ppl. luckily the storm dissipated
