I was in Snare Rapids, Northwest Territories for a week. The site is located about 140 km north of Yellowknife. With the ice road open, we were able to drive in to the site. The closest town is Wha Ti, which is only accessible by vehicle when the ice road is open.
There was a lot of ice fog created from the hydro-electric dam. It made for a nice coating of ice on the trees.
Despite it being north of 62 degrees N, there was still sun in mid-February.
You can see the cloud of ice fog that is rising over the Snare River. The dam’s capacity is 8 MW.
We had a rental truck from Yellowknife.
The one morning the temperature was at -38 degrees C.
The power corp has a full-time chef in camp, the second night this was our dinner, Alaskan king crab legs and steak.

Back in Yellowknife.
Here I am outside the City of Yellowknife City Hall building.
