I never made it to Tuktoyaktuk but was in Inuvik and Sachs Harbour in Jul, the sun never dropping below the horizon is cool to experience. Also did trips to Taloyoak, Rankin Inlet, Resolute and Iqaluit. Went looking for polar bears but never did spot one. The trips in Dec and Jan were brutal with the temps, have to be extremely careful when driving an have a plan in case you hit the ditch or get stranded.
A lot of people never get to see that part of our country so enjoy it, the local people are very friendly, a lot of smiles and hellos. Truly desolate places that make you appreciate the simple things we enjoy here in the city.
