The excitement leading up to another surreal and other – worldly northern lights season in Churchill is always a fun time. Only a few years ago, very few people ventured north to view the spectacular aurora borealis light show. Now, this year Natural Habitat Adventures alone will send nearly 200 people to Churchill over the course of two months to sample the northern spirit and take in the most incredible show above the Arctic. This shot from a little further north in Inuvik is just a preview of what’s to come in January in Churchill! Keep posted for all the news from the north.
