My pal Robert Epiloon, Ekalluk R., Victoria Is, Western Canadian Arctic. 1965.

I was a student on a four-person archaeological team on the Ekalluk River. A dozen or so families of Ekalluktormiut lived in a fishing camp nearby. Here, they come to be sociable and help out as we repair a float on our Single Otter.
