I thought they wore seal fur hats. Alaska State Troopers show that was on TV showed them in seal hats. Can’t beat fur on the noggin. Wind just cuts right through a good toque.

The article mentioned some troopers purchase their own trapper hats from locals so some might wear seal but the ones I've seen in Eastern Interior weren't seal. Either way I'm glad they are supporting fur and trappers, when I see someone wearing fur I thank them for supporting trappers.
