with Egingwah and Inuaksso. (86 Day was beautiful and we encoun- tered no obstructing ice. Plenty of bergs but well spread apart. At about 5 p.m. we were off Cape Parry and at 7:50 p.m. we reached Neki- livit, where we left Egingwah and took on Tolutinguwah as fog pilot. Fine snow had been falling during latter part of afternoon and the hill- sides were already whitened. Went ashore and visited with Kolu- tingwah's family. His wife Tung- wi (same name as that of the man at U- lugset), called Tungwingwah by Parry, is a fine looking motherly woman. Her daughter Alnaduah is Kudlukto's wife. Two white whales swam along the shore passing close to the boat, while we were on shore. Left topics at 8:30
