The cliff-hanging Eskimo village of Ukivok is situated on King Island, a sea mountain which rises over a thousand feet out of the Bering Sea, forty miles west of Alaska’s western-most Seward Peninsula. The village is the home of 25 Eskimo families, who live by walrus and seal hunting, as well as ivory carving.
