"Alpine" tundra territory along the Beartooth Highway, Montana, in 2007 |
In mid-October, the tundra along the western shores of Hudson's Bay can be a dreary, windy, rainy place, but even the low visibility and wind-driven precipitation can't hide its unique beauty.

The tundra is full of shallow depressions where water collects, and tundra rovers are fully equipped to ignore such impediments.
"Carry on!" |
Tundra along Hudson's Bay |
Soon to be frozen over, featureless, and bearless until spring thaw--the tundra is nonetheless not colorless. |
Really wonderful travelogue series and great photographs. Surely a life-altering experience. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI am following your story with fascination. I want to go there!
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I always loved going to Montana flyfishing. Either coming or going we always made time for a few days fishing at Slough creek and took the Beartooth Highway. Charles Kuralt was correct... Americas most scenic road. :)
