In the entrance passageway a small creature can be seen moving towards the house. Outside the house is a mother bear figure wearing an amautiq with a child hidden inside. To the right is another snow house occupied by bears. The bears appear to be sleeping on the sleeping platform. Standing on the floor of the house are two human figures possibly wearing masks. In the entrance passage of this house is a small bear heading out of the house. Outside is a mother bear with a child bear in her amautiq welcoming home a hunter bear who is dragging a seal. To the right of the image is a human/bear figure in the act of yelling.
