Bottom left: For a number of years, Narraway was the race timer on the Nunavut Quest dog race. On this particular race, prior to the dogsleds arriving, helpers arrived to set up camp and put up tents. The father of these children had set up the tent and the three were sitting on a mattress covered with caribou skins. “The tent was open because it was a beautiful day, and the kids were just sitting there and the light on their faces just made me want to take a photo,” Narraway says. “I started chatting with them and took the picture.” © LEE NARRAWAy

Bottom right: Harris and Runge started their hike at the north end of Auyuitttuq National Park. They spent a few days traipsing through the braids in attempts to find a place to cross the first river, but couldn’t get across the raging water. “There was Arctic cotton everywhere. This was taken on one of our first days in the northern half of Akshayuk Pass,” says Harris. “It was overcast the whole time. The clouds were so low in the mountains, they almost touched the ground.” © DONNA HARRIS
