Description:
Old Gory Nicholai (left), who was originally from Kodiak, and Wanka Zackar (right), who was Zenia Kolyaha's father and a great bear hunter according to Fred Roehl, with a brown bear they just harvested on Iliamna Mountains across from Old Iliamna Village, circa 1915. Wanka had an uncanny ability to locate brown bears.
