|
|
| Further down the point... |
|
|
| Acme brand road runner trap |

| Adam and Tad at Longue Point, James Bay, Quebec |
|
|
| Pack ice in the bay...strong enough to walk on |
|
|
| It was at least two feet thick |
|
|
| Lonely KLRs...waiting for us to return from our hike |
|
|
| Longue Point, GPS style |
|

| Huge reservoirs all over the place...blue blue water |
|
|
| The highway...the only thing out here is dirt roads and caribou |
