The Alaskan Santa blends native culture with Christian tradition. His costume, worthy of a chief, is moose hide trimmed with beaver fur and elaborately decorated with beads, felt and cloth. His red sack bears a tree, a toy grizzly bear, a carved mask to honor ancestors, a drum, and a toy hydroplane. In Santa's pocket is a little toy seal, reminiscent of the seals that rest on floating icebergs throughout the straits of Alaska. His wolf-like companion, the Alaskan Malamute, pulls the sleigh across snow-covered terrain for children huddled in warm cozy homes all over Alaska.
