Dude, do you just make this stuff up?  Perhaps you should open your eyes to Yupik's history of warriors and raiding parties that were present predating the Russian settlements in Alaska.   The legend of Apanuugpak did not come from a culture that exhibited boundless hospitality.  

On another note, I am surprised that there were not local global warming/climate protestors in Nome to highlight the decadent use of oil products required to maintain the cruise ship's opulent sailing.
