Arctic Marine Safety
Arctic Marine Safety
For as long as people have inhabited the Eastern Arctic, they have relied on its waters
for food and transportation. Arctic Marine Safety is a guide to safe travel on the ice or
open water by dog team, snowmobile, or boat. The book includes advice on preparing
for a trip on the ice or water, using both contemporary and traditional navigation
methods, mitigating common Arctic hazards, and handling possible emergency
situations.
Hunting is one of the most important land skills in the Arctic and continues to be an
important source of income and food for many people and communities. The Hunter
Education series shares traditional Inuit hunting knowledge, including the importance of
environmental stewardship. It also discusses proper hunting techniques, safety, and
animal behaviour.
