Temperature: 33F

Location: Outside Iglulik

Latitude: 69deg 34’ 24’’ N

Longitude: 81deg 09’ 01” W

Distance Traveled: 25 Miles

We left Iglulik yesterday at 11:30 p.m. It is now 8 p.m. on May 21st. We traveled during the night last night, and then slept during the daytime. We just got up a 8 p.m., and will be leaving at 10 p.m. We will be traveling from 10 at night to 7 in the morning, and then sleeping during the day.

We traveled about 25 miles. It was a fairly tough day, mainly because we were jet-lagged and kind of tired. It is always tough when you push your clock up 14 hours, it is like flying to Asia. Despite that we traveled 25 miles. It was very good weather, warm weather. It was very pleasant sleeping in the tent, warm. We had the doors open in the tent.

We are heading out here again in another couple of hours.
