Faye and Maciek's Adventures in the frosty Canadian North
I hosted Inuvik’s first board game tournament. It took place over two days, 17 people attended, and we had prizes! I got too busy with board games though and forgot to take many pictures. We played three rounds of games of increasing complexity.
My office had a booth at Science Rendezvous again, and I look like I’m having WAY too much fun there.
I previously posted an article about the Great Canadian Reindeer Project, which is a pretty interesting piece of local history. While the ice road was still open, some buddies and I made a quick trip up to Reindeer Station, the former headquarters of the reindeer herd.
Reindeer Station is now used for culture camps, and it has quite a few new buildings, but I am partial to the old, broken down infrastructure.
There’s also an old, broken down Bombardier snowmobile (pronounced “bombadeer” up North), which might have looked something like the photo on the right in its heyday.
Overall, it was a nice spring outing.
