We copped a lucky break yesterday with the weather; the fog lifted early revealing a nice sunny day getting up to +10. It is foggy as to what the rest of the week brings.

We did the walk around the shops in the morning then in the afternoon took a ride up into the hills to check road and trail conditions.
The roads have cuts into the snow and are OK; the trails still have some way to go before they will be a pleasant walk.

I took this photo showing the ice conditions near town. It shows the NG admin building under construction, the beige building with the blue stripe is the new Northern.

Then we did a run down to northern point and the airstrip, the spring clean up crew have started and are in full force there, what a difference in such a short time. Nothing looks more disgusting and uninviting than all those plastic bags stuck in the willows and brush.




We stuck around chewing the fat and people watching as the two afternoon flights arrived.
