August long weekend at Itirlak Cabin

Saturday morning we took the 3 hour ride to our cabin at Itirlak Lake. We had a good weekend and the weather finally cooperated with just enough wind to keep the bugs away. We saw a small herd of about 30 caribou on Saturday but they were all females with calfs so we did not hunt them.

Nunavut Day - Long Wekkend

So far this summer this has been the only weekend where it didn't rain. The temperature actually reached a balmy 23 C but the mosquitos were out in full force. Overall we had a great weekend, I saw a seal swimming in the bay beside the cabin and saw my first caribou of the year. It was a decent size bull with a decent rack, I tried getting it but it ran into a swampy area and i didn't want any part of that mosquito infested water so I let him go.
