This unusual parka is made of King Eider duck skin and covered in feathers.
It was worn by Atanarjuat's arch-rival, Oki, during the attack on Atanarjuat's
camp and subsequent chase across the sea ice. The parka floats in water!
In March 2013 American John Huston, Norwegian Tobias Thorleifsson, Canadian Hugh Dale-Harris, and South African Kyle O’Donoghue, an expedition videographer, will traverse 630 miles on Ellesmere Island in the Canadian High Arctic. Powered by wind, muscle, and four canine skijoring companions the expedition will travel through one of the last untouched wildernesses on the planet.
