This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Alaska's Eskimo community. The image transports us to Barrow, Alaska, during the early 20th century when a gathering of Eskimos came together for an exhilarating sports event. The scene is set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Arctic tundra, with a traditional tent serving as the central point of activity. A vibrant flag flutters proudly in the wind, symbolizing unity and celebration. The Lomen Brothers expertly captured this snapshot that encapsulates both athleticism and camaraderie.

From thrilling jumps to intense contests, these individuals showcase their prowess while honoring age-old traditions passed down through generations.
