Polar Zones | Arctic Circle | Departure

 

..this is why i set my
departure to be on
February 16, 2005


I preferred to have longer day light hours for my driving but
i had to be back by mid april before the river crossing was closed.

February 1st:
There are 3 hours of daylight in Tuktoyaktuk
March 1st:
There are 9 hours of daylight in Tuktoyaktuk
Mid April:
The crossing of the McKenzie river and the Peel river is closed for a few weeks for ice melting until the ferry can operate.
