Rowers Have Arrived In Beautiful Downtown Paulatuk

Long time to go without a restroom. Did they leave their scents in yellow snow, for the polar bears?
Speaking of polar bears, here’s a nice video of one of them cuddly cute creatures trying to eat a man in a cage. How delightful:

Remember, you don’t have to outrun the bear; you just have to outrun your buddy…
Cool clip!
This one is from the same program but a little longer. Stop it at 2:23 to see how far she can extend her jaw open.

Is that an airstrip ? 🙂
Vacation resort beach front property!
The airstrip is just above this picture.
that’s a long way in the wrong direction….
I hope they have internet there!
Doesn’t look likely that there’s a store that sells anchors there.
Beg, borrow, or steal.
The kayakers are still there too. Maybe they’ll offer the rowers a tow.
Well, now the draggers can book a room at madam mukluks Bearhug Inn. The madam and her mom are both workin the late shift.
I once knew a young lady named Paula Tuk
Boy, did she really ever know how to… yuck
She’d tell me the jokes
and to all the blokes
She’d laugh so hard she would up- chuck.
Tuktoyakutsk to Paulatuk (as the crow flies) 218 miles
Paulatuk to Pond Inlet (as the crow flies) 1,034 miles.
At current rate of “progress” they can expect to arrive in Pond Inlet around the end of October…..
Good luck, gentlemen……
Mucho good luck, that crow would have a dizzying flight path.
4000 feet of improved gravel runway, crowned and ridged.
At least it was when I was there back in the day and inspected it.
They had runways that long ago?
It is actually one of those alien landing strips like in Peru.
The Wright brothers didn’t know what to make of it. 🙂
Let’s see the rowers try to talk the residents out of their reliance on that Eeeeevil Fossil Fuel stored in those big tanks in the photo.
At least now we know who to blame for the Arctic melting.
…as they take hot showers for the first time in some weeks.
Doesn’t look like the kind of place that has a hotel. They would have to convince someone to let them use their bathroom.
So, when is someone going to give them all the bad news that the Northwest Passage is closed?
Wouldn’t it be a bitch if the only rooms at the Paulatuk B&B were already occupied by the kayak team?
Oceanographic research ship USCGC Healy (callsign NEPP) has been reporting 23.6C water in the Arctic Ocean (approx).

There lost and in the wrong ocean. They are near to Perth.
Oh, I didn’t see the blow lamp, sorry.
Reggie, where are you ? gives some help! What the hell have you mounted that blo on.?
“23.6” seems to be some sort of error value. There are several readings of exactly “23.6”. Real data doesn’t do this. Also, in the case of about 6 of the 23.6 readings the adjacent dewpoint data cell is missing completely. (Pardon me if I’m just pointing-out the blindingly obvious)
It was the weekly “Mojito Mayhem & Burning Bunghole Burrito Blast” aboard ship and the water temp sensor is located just aft of the brown water discharge port. 😉
They were probably doing some repair or component replacement on the sensor assembly, so they brought it inside to the heated workshop.
OT but it does make you wonder about the reliability of ocean temprature readings generally.
I agree it’s probably an error, but it’s a _research_ ship: if _they_ can’t manage that simple task, …
Healy seems to out check if the Beaufort sea ice is ‘decayed’ and if it isn’t, make it ‘decayed’.
According to WikiP, the name Paulatuk means “place of coal” in the local vernacular. Oh, the ironing……
