Ice Road
This past year, Al and Lin took a load of canoe gear, canoes, and supplies in their truck from Toronto to Norman Wells. The trip took eight days and the last two days were on the winter road that runs between Wrigley, NWT and Norman Wells, NWT. The weather was amazing except for around Kenora and Winnipeg … go figure! All the way up, they visited friends: Jean and John Burke in Sault Ste. Marie, Anne and Bill Ostrom in Thunder Bay, Lara Osiowy in Regina, Susan Gingell in Saskatoon, Wendy and Ron Oe in Grand Prairie, Cindy Ross and Karla and Ron RoseĀ in Hay River, Judy and Ron Pragnell in Fort Simpson, and Alison DeJong in Tulita. They spent a couple of days in Norman Wells visiting with Carolyn and Warren Wright, and Diane and Andrew Bailes. Pictures show the ice road and Lin in the truck on the Mackenzie River in front of Great Bear Rock.
