Donald MacMillan, George Borup with his
Winchester rifle, Capt. Bartlett caught with his eyes
closed, and Matt Henson. Matt holds a 30 foot walrus hide
whip used to control a dog team.
In fact, Matt developed a deformed thumb from his years of
driving teams while holding a whip. He was praised by both
Peary and the Eskimos as one of the best dog team drivers.

| About images, pixels, and
resolution |
Web photos are standardized to 72
pixels/inch (px). This is like "dots per inch" only on a
monitor where each dot has a red, green, and blue phosphor
(pixels). All pictures on this site are at
the 72 px resolution. Format is JPEG usually set for maximum quality.
At 72 px/inch an image can be any width & height. Your
monitor just can't display more at one time than it's
setting--such as 800 pixels wide, 1024, 1140, 1600, etc. For
example: This photo is 72px resolution and 400px wide X
291px high.
Web pages are usually 800 pixels wide, although 640 pixels
is the maximum width of a printout of a webpage. That used
to be the limiting size of webpages, but now that people
have higher resolution monitors such as 1600 pixel wide LCDs
the trend is to larger images.
Print images are saved in TIFF format, with resolution of
300 dots/inch (DPI). At such high resolution one then
specifies size in inches. So a 300 dpi photo might be 5" x
7" or 8" x 10" , etc.
