Jim & Nancy Mercer of Kotzebue are standing at the Point, where, 100 years ago, the land bridge used to reach almost all the way out into the Chukchi Sea towards Russia. People have lived in Point Hope for over 5,000 years! Below, the ocean washes over the Point. Jim comments, "many seals and birds were there that day. But they will disappear as it gets colder." |
