Day 4 - Here Comes the Sun

Our fourth and final day on the tundra. And what a day it was. The sun came out and it was glorious. And for the first time in 4 days we had excellent photography conditions. However, sunny conditions means clear skies. And clear skies mean severe cold. When I had to take my gloves off my hands would freeze in seconds.

Our timing for this trip was nearly perfect. In the past few days the HudsonBay has begun to freeze over. Today most of the bears we saw were either on the ice or very close to it. By next week the bears will be gone.

Enjoy today's sampling of photos. And stay tuned in for one more special post tomorrow.

Best regards,
Mark and Cathy


Hmm. What's for lunch?
