Dawson City Round 2

Tombstone Mountains

Fall was just starting up here, this was around late August

First Arctic Circle Crossing of the trip

Peel River Ferry Crossing

How come we don't get cool shaped license plates

All water and sewage in Inuvik are in above ground heated pipes because of the permafrost

LAB ERROR (?) OOPS WE DEEP FRIED YOUR FILM

Last tree on the way up to Tuktoyaktuk

Made it. This is as far north as you can drive in Canada

Tuktoyaktuk, NWT. The summer road up here from Inuvik was only just opened in 2018 so this place is in its tourism infancy

A preserved schooner from the early 1900s. It's a memorial to a lot of brave seamanship plying the Beaufort Sea supplying villages and Catholic missions, as well as an unfortunate reminder of the forced transportation of local kids to Catholic residential schools.

Pile of random shit? I like this one idk why

Grandma's Kitchen, the only place to get a bite in town. Also probably one of the only places where you can try Beluga. The people that work/live here were incredibly hospitable, Grandpa even shared a few beers and let me pick his brain about growing up here.

He also let me wear his homemade winter wolverine hunting parka

The same family also runs the medical transport bus down to Inuvik

I'm impressed that VW bus made it all the way up here honestly

Artsy satellite dishes in Inuvik

US/Canada border but this time its late August instead of mid July. See next pic for reference

Dalton Highway

Article Circle Crossing 2

I GoPro time lapsed both roads, one of these days I'll get around to doing something with the footage. Good vibe Inuit was purchased from a shop in Tuk, it still lives there although it's turned mostly white from the sun
