I would love to spend a few months with the Inuits to learn some basic Arctic survival techniques from them.

I think the point is make the effort to keep the traditions alive. , and I read that in Arctic Canada even the names of places are changed to Inuit language. :)

@NameTaken1000 regarding the Inuits,have you seen the movie"Fast Runner" a great film, if you watch closely you notice that there is not a single piece of metal shown being used or even existing in their lifestyle. A great film. one scene not scripted but left in is a bunch of the actors & film crew are sitting in an Igloo and it is apparent to them all that a Polar bear {no SAG card} is padding outside. They are all inside looking at each other & like "you want to go out & see? nope ! you?"

They should've informed Poochers about the Polar Bears, that was 2 too many.

There is nothing like reading snow....this is bull shit.....humans have a very good subconscious memory and everything they see slowly imprints on their memory and thats how they always know how to go back home...i can challenge these Inuits that they cant find their way back home in Himalayas......i guess may be they can read the stars night thats the only accurate way to know the travelling direction...otherwise they will die and MY brother "snow leopard" will eat them in HIMALAYAS
