Day 12

Graeme wading in the Beaufort Sea. Windy, cold but the water was warm.
What else can I say?
Mary bonds with the Beaufort Sea
The terminus of the Trans Canada Trail in Tuk
A different Welcome to Tuktoyaktuk sign
Sounded tasty but we had butter tarts and bannock instead.

Round trip from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk today. Drove with Olav, a Norwegion from Lillehammar, who runs the Arctic Chalet with his wife Judy. Fabulous commentary all day filled with local knowledge. Rapid trip back as Olav wanted to get to an auction.
