Up the hill we go!


We'd been wanting to hike up the biggest hill in town so when we had the oportunity to we took it. Here are some of the things we saw.

Closeup of a neat looking plant growing between the rocks.


Locals told us that this barge has been stuck here all year since last fall when the ice formed before it had a chance to leave. This year's barges have not arrived yet, but shoud be here any time now.


Facing away from downtown, out toward the industrial area.


Our first Inukshuk. This one stands at the top of the hill and looks at town, or in this photo the Coronation Gulf where it's met by the Coppermine River.
