Sledding in the area.


 This is one kind of sledding, but the very hard kind! About this time of year many people are heading up river or heading north to the Yukon to cut down dead spruce and drag them home. Hard work! Usually, where the trees are is where there is a lot of snow. People have to trudge through drifts to cut, fell, then drag the wood to their sleds. These trips can be three to four hours away.



 Not many big hills out on the tundra. But, this year, we have some awfully big ones!








 This one has grown. It is in front of the police headquarters.











 This drift, out our window, kept getting larger and larger over the months.
