Hey Garett, this is Christopher S. and I was wondering why the prices were high in the "bush."

HI Chris,
I am answering for Garrett. The prices are so so so high in the bush because it is "out in the bush" - that means far away. It is super hard to get food to some of these places. For instance in Barrow, most food is flown in or comes in via boat/ship. Hope that makes sense.
Thank you for your question,
Mrs. Eubanks
