The community of Qikiqtarjuaq was the second stop on
the Clyde/Qik double circuit. On Wednesday, October 30th, the court
party left Clyde River and flew to Qikiqtarjuaq, by Air Nunavut charter. Approaching Qikiqtarjuaq there were areas
where visibility was poor because of snow, but the pilots flew around the bad
weather and we made it in first try. The plane flew at a very low altitude for
about half of the flight giving everyone a spectacular view of mountains, ocean and icebergs. It was the most incredible flying that I’ve ever
experienced.
This is a picture of our arrival. The RCMP met the plane and
helped with getting everyone and their bags to the Tulugak (Raven) Hotel.
