Mabel Baldwin-Schaeffer stands under an arch made of two whale ribs. She has her arms raised, with her back to the camera and facing the Arctic Ocean on a beach in Utqiagvik, Alaska. The skeleton of a small overturned boat is propped up on the beach beside the arch. Sea ice gathers along the shore and in the distant offshore with a stretch of open water in between. Blue sky and gray clouds are visible above the horizon. Mabel Baldwin-Schaeffer under the Utqiagvik whale bone arch overlooking the Arctic Ocean. Credit: Patrick Savok.
