Lots of anecdotal tales from trips up north; Four guys on ski doo’s were chased [in a serious manner] by a pack of eleven wolves.

My nephew and his father had a polar bear run at them. Needless to say they skedaddled out of range right fast.

Three strong young blokes were pushing a stuck ski doo out of slush and snow. Not getting anywhere fast. Discover the driver of said ski doo had machine in reverse and on full throttle.

More caribou around; this time south west in Voisey’s Bay area. Seems like small bunches are discovered, big rush out of town, the small bunches are either wiped out or scattered. Result is plenty of meat around town.

These pictures are of a trip our Daughter took this weekend. One of conditions on way in, west of town, and of the barrens when in there.

Being chased by wolves or polar bears isn't my idea of fun. Neither is pushing a skidoo when it's in reverse! Amazing scenery, especially the picture of the barrens. I am assuming the trip was made by skidoo... no roads around there? Yep, I know, that's a stupid question.....
