Renideer Herd out by Jimmy Lake north of Inuvik Jan 2015

Took a snowmobile trip out to the reindeer herd on Sunday, -18 in town and -35 out by the herd. Not much snow even out on the tundra. The herder was out doing some culling, the meat is mainly used for the communities. Cold day with 82% humidity, fortunately not much wind but lots of ground fog on the way back to town in fading light; easy to get lost if one is not careful. Really nice to see the sun but it's still only up for a short time. As the herd moves the snow dust hangs in the air from their passing, hence the grey "fog" in some pf the pix
