A Ptarmigans-eye view

This is Inuvik from above, at the top of Baldie (a hill that I climbed today, named so because it is the location where the towns gravel pit is...the hill is becoming progressively bald). Today was slightly hazy, but mostly sunny and gorgeous. Also warmer at -22. My friend and I went for a walk on the boot lake trail, and ended up here.
Later, I went for a ski on the trails with some borrowed skis and a group from the ski club. I saw a group of Ptarmigans (stunningly white Arctic birds from the Grouse family).
Another fantastic day in Inuvik.
