Back on the road, now heading for Happy-Valley Goose Bay

Time to fill the spare gas cans.

Below I tried to capture what an oncoming vehicle looks like. You can imagine the dust it lifts as it goes by. The worst it trying to overtake in this cloud of zero visibility. Most drivers are aware enough to stop and pull over as you approach but not all. Good thing traffic is sporadic up here.

The above picture really doesn’t do justice to the sceneary, actually none of the sceanery pics actually manage to capture the whole experience of beeing here; endless sea of green and icebergs of snow floating in a neverending sky. They call this place the “big land” and at this point in the trip I am beginning to understand why. Anyhow, in the above picture I was trying to capture the white matchsticks of birch supporting the leafy green canopy.
