Last leg: from Tuktoyaktuk to Inuvik: Yann
I am writing aboard while we are sailing up the beautiful and quiet Mackenzie river to our last stop: Inuvik where the boat will winter. The landscape has drastically changed since Cambridge Bay or even the stopped we had on the way to Tuktoyaktuk. Tuktoyaktuk, still on the marine coast but at the mouth of the river, still across the Arctic Circle yet not polar any more, still an Inuit town but very southern Canadian in many ways. The language is gone and a road comes here. Now there is a night and a morning everyday, here there are trees, cumulonimbus and the weather resembles what we call a winter.
