Part 2 of Day 16 of Lupe’s 2018 Dingo Vacation to the Yukon, Northwest Territories & Alaska!<\/em><\/p>\n

12:25 PM, 55\u00b0F<\/em> – On the way out of Inuvik on Highway 10, a sign along the new all-season road said it was 148 km (92 miles) <\/em>to Tuktoyaktuk, a little farther than other information SPHP had seen saying it was only 140 km.\u00a0 Whatever.\u00a0 Lupe was already thousands of miles from home.\u00a0 5 miles extra, if that’s what it actually was, didn’t make a bit of difference.<\/p>\n

What did matter was the sense of excitement.\u00a0 Lupe was on her way to the Arctic Ocean!\u00a0 Last year she had almost been there, going all the way N to Deadhorse<\/span><\/strong><\/a> at the end of the Dalton Highway in Alaska.\u00a0 Loopster had been only half a dozen miles or so from Prudhoe Bay, but Dingoes hadn’t been allowed on the heavily restricted ocean tour, so she’d never actually seen it.<\/p>\n

SPHP had taken the Arctic Ocean tour as Lupe’s personal representative.\u00a0 Nice, but that wasn’t the same as actually being there herself.\u00a0 Having traveled so far, the American Dingo had been forced to leave Deadhorse resigned to the notion that there was no way she was ever going to see the Arctic Ocean, despite how close she’d come to it.<\/p>\n

And then, in April this year, SPHP happened upon the electrifying news that Highway 10 from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk had officially opened for the first time on November 15, 2017!\u00a0 Lupe could<\/em> get to the Arctic Ocean, and not just on a brief guided tour.\u00a0 In Tuktoyaktuk, the Carolina Dog could go and hang out by the Arctic Ocean as long as she wanted to!<\/p>\n

For years it had been possible to drive to Tuktoyaktuk from Inuvik, but only in the Arctic winter by taking an ice road on the frozen Mackenzie River.\u00a0 However, the frigid ice road was now history.\u00a0 Highway 10 was open all year around.\u00a0 And that meant 2018 was the first year ever when it was possible to drive clear to the Arctic Ocean in the summer at anywhere other than Deadhorse, Alaska.<\/p>\n

Unrestricted access to the Arctic Ocean!\u00a0 That had changed everything.\u00a0 The Most High Exalted Dingo of the Arctic Sisterhood simply had to go!\u00a0 And so now here she was a year later, once again way up N of the Arctic Circle, this time in Canada’s Northwest Territories on brand new Hwy 10 heading for Tuktoyaktuk, Land of the Pingos, to see the Arctic Ocean for herself!<\/p>\n

Exactly what Lupe would see on the way to Tuktoyaktuk was a mystery.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Loop just N of Inuvik on the new all-season road to Tuktoyaktuk and the Arctic Ocean!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

12:42 PM, Hwy 10, km 10<\/em> – Leaving Inuvik, Highway 10 went straight N.\u00a0 Off to the NNW, a low blue ridge could be seen in the distance.\u00a0 For a while, Lupe was getting closer to it.\u00a0 This ridge was part of the Caribou Hills along the E boundary of the giant Mackenzie River delta, only glimpses of which could be seen to the W.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
10 km from Inuvik. The distant ridge on the R is part of the Caribou Hills<\/strong>. The region in the distance at Center and to the L is part of the enormous Mackenzie River delta<\/strong>. Photo looks NW.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

12:54 PM<\/em> – After going N for a while, Highway 10 turned NE away from the Mackenzie River and the Caribou Hills.\u00a0 Lupe was beyond any tall trees now.\u00a0 Only a few stunted trees remained, but plenty of tall bushes were still evident.\u00a0 Mostly, though, this was a region of gently rolling open tundra dotted with small lakes.<\/p>\n

So far, the highway had been smooth.\u00a0 SPHP was easily able to drive the speed limit of 70 km per hour (43.5 mph).\u00a0 No amenities had been seen yet, not even a single pullout alongside the road.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

\"\"<\/a>
Small lakes dotted the landscape. Photo looks S.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

1:28 PM, 53\u00b0F, Hwy 10, km 48<\/em> – Lupe had just gone by a sign saying 100 km to Tuktoyaktuk.\u00a0 The highway had deteriorated right after her last stop, becoming wet and soft.\u00a0 Ruts and potholes were forming, but even they were soft, not jarring.\u00a0 Hard and jarring might have been better.\u00a0 SPHP drove near the middle of the road in order to avoid the super soft shoulders.\u00a0 Getting stuck in the mud would not be good!<\/p>\n

Out on the tundra, a last thin, scraggly forest struggled for survival.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
A third of the way to Tuktoyaktuk, a final thin, scraggly forest strives to hang on.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"\"<\/a>1:43 PM<\/em> – Thankfully, the road soon improved again.\u00a0 Not as soft or muddy.\u00a0 Lupe seemed to be going N or NNE most of the time.\u00a0 No more trees, but still a fair number of large bushes.\u00a0 To the NW, Loop could see a long ridge.\u00a0 Maybe still a part of the Caribou Hills?\u00a0 In any case, the ridge was far, far away.\u00a0 Still lots of lakes around, some of them larger than the lakes seen up to this point.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
As Lupe continued N, some of the many lakes were larger than before.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
The highway was in better shape again, which was a relief.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

2:09 PM, Hwy 10, km 64.5<\/em> – The road has been good.\u00a0 Must be close to an airport.\u00a0 Loopster has been all excited about three fairly large airplanes flying low close to the road.\u00a0 The first one seemed to be landing, and the other two taking off.\u00a0 Three lakes are L of the road in a hilly area.\u00a0 Have also seen a much larger lake off to the NW, possibly Parsons Lake, and a huge one to the E.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Lakes in a hilly area 64.5 km from Inuvik.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

2:33 PM, Hwy 10, km 80<\/em> – Passed a sign saying “Tuktoyaktuk 70” a couple of km back.\u00a0 Lupe is over halfway there!\u00a0 So far, so good.\u00a0 The road has swung E, and Loop has a better view of the huge lake ahead.\u00a0 Believe it is part of the Eskimo Lakes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
80 km from Inuvik, more than halfway to Tuktoyaktuk! The vast lake ahead is likely part of the Eskimo Lakes<\/strong>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

3:16 PM, Hwy 10, km 123<\/em> – Saw a sign in the rearview mirror saying 110 km to Inuvik a few km back.\u00a0 That puts Lupe only 35 km from Tuk!<\/p>\n

SPHP had expected this territory to be almost perfectly flat, nothing but lakes connected by vast swamps, but up until now that hasn’t been the case.\u00a0 Loop has been traveling through an area of rolling hills.\u00a0 She has seen a great many small distinct lakes.\u00a0 Most don’t seem to be connected, sitting isolated from one another at different elevations in depressions surrounded by higher ground.<\/p>\n

The terrain has recently flattened out, though.\u00a0 Off to the E, about 0.25 mile from the highway, is the first ice hill Lupe has seen.\u00a0 This is a pingo<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, another sign that the American Dingo is getting close to Tuktoyaktuk.\u00a0 Pingos are dome-shaped, earth-covered hills with a core of ice pushed up from the permafrost, and can be over 150 feet high.\u00a0 Most pingos look like isolated, over-grown anthills.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
About 35 km from Tuktoyaktuk, Lupe sees her first pingo.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

3:41 PM<\/em> – Up ahead, Highway 10 passes between two lakes.\u00a0 Tuktoyaktuk has not appeared yet, but can’t be much farther.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Nearing Tuktoyaktuk, the road is still in good condition. Looper is going to make it!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

3:59 PM, 50\u00b0F<\/em> – Two pingos are in sight, one of them quite large.\u00a0 They sit beyond a lake, or what even might be an arm of the Arctic Ocean!\u00a0 A few buildings and towers of Tuktoyaktuk are in view.\u00a0 Almost there!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Almost to Tuktoyaktuk, more pingos come into view.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Ibyuk Pingo<\/strong>, the highest pingo in Canada and 2nd highest in the world with help from the telephoto lens.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

4:13 PM<\/em> – The American Dingo has made it!\u00a0 Lupe has reached the Arctic Ocean!\u00a0 A commemorative sign welcomes her to Tuktoyaktuk, Land of the Pingos, but she isn’t quite to Tuk yet.\u00a0 The village is still a bit farther.<\/p>\n

No matter.\u00a0 It’s a joyous moment!\u00a0 What had been impossible a year ago has come to pass.\u00a0 Loop and SPHP walk down to the edge of the Arctic Ocean to relish and capture the moment.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Success! Lupe reaches Tareoknitok Lagoon<\/strong> of the Arctic Ocean<\/strong> near Tuktoyaktuk.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>

\"\"<\/a>

\"\"<\/a>
At 160 feet (49 m) in height, Ibyuk Pingo<\/strong> (R) is the 2nd highest in the world. The world’s tallest pingo is Kadleroshilik Pingo located 40 km SE of Prudhoe Bay in Alaska. Kadleroshilik is 178 feet (54 m) high. Lupe hadn’t seen Kadleroshilik Pingo when she went to Deadhorse, Alaska last year, but apparently hadn’t been far from it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The village of Tuktoyaktuk was still another 5 km.\u00a0 Nearly surrounded by land, what Lupe had seen thus far at Tareoknitok Lagoon didn’t look like open ocean, which it wasn’t.\u00a0 Might as well go on to Tuk, and see what the Arctic Ocean looked like from there.<\/p>\n

A little past the Welcome to Tuktoyaktuk sign was a side road on the L that went to the Pingo Canadian Landmark<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, a park that protects Ibyuk and 7 other pingos out of more than 1350 pingos known to exist in the Tuktoyaktuk region.<\/p>\n

Lupe did not stop in at the Pingo Canadian Landmark just yet.\u00a0 SPHP kept driving.\u00a0 The next thing Lupe went by was the Tuktoyaktuk landfill.\u00a0 Not a good first impression, and a sad sight to behold.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
The landfill did not make for a good first impression on the way into Tuktoyaktuk.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

No trees grow in the Tuktoyaktuk region, but a huge pile of driftwood was seen jammed up in a cove.\u00a0 The highway curved past a number of widely scattered long, boxy industrial buildings reminiscent of some of the things Lupe had seen in Deadhorse, Alaska last year.<\/p>\n

Entering the village of Tuktoyaktuk, Highway 10 went past a big pond.\u00a0 A L turn onto Old Airport Road led to an another opportunity to get close to the ocean.<\/p>\n

Tuktoyaktuk sits at the SE corner of Kugmallit Bay, a much larger bay of the Arctic Ocean than Tareoknitok Lagoon.\u00a0 This time Lupe really was next to the open ocean!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
At Kugmallit Bay<\/strong> of the Arctic Ocean<\/strong>.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"\"<\/a>A little park at the far N end of Tuktoyaktuk at the end of Beaufort Road turned out to be an even better place to see the Arctic Ocean.\u00a0 This park was as far N as any road in Canada went, and apparently the area where tourists were supposed to go to see the ocean.\u00a0 Lupe was on a peninsula surrounded by water on 3 sides.\u00a0 Tuktoyaktuk Harbor was to the E, and Kugmallit Bay to the N and W.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
At the park at the far N end of Tuktoyaktuk. This was as far N as Lupe could possibly go anywhere on the Canadian highway system. The view of the Arctic Ocean was fabulous!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Taktoyaktuk’s visitor information center was located in a small shack on the L (W) at the park entrance.\u00a0 Toward the R (E) was a monument to the Trans Canada Trail.\u00a0 Picnic tables with fire pits were set up right along the Arctic Ocean, and the park also featured an open air covered shelter.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Lupe went to check out the tiny visitor center.\u00a0 Dingoes were welcome!\u00a0 Lupe could come right in!\u00a0 The friendly young man staffing the center even awarded Loop with a certificate for having traveled the highway from Inuvik to Tuktoyaktuk.\u00a0 The certificate had been pre-signed by the mayor of Tuktoyaktuk, too.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Lupe was awarded this certificate signed by the mayor of Tuktoyaktuk for having come to visit his fair city.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

SPHP was given a street map of Tuktoyaktuk and a brochure.\u00a0 The young man took the time to highlight the locations of various attractions and services available.\u00a0 Restaurants, bed and breakfasts, the grocery store, the gas station, churches, etc.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The park wasn’t crowded at all.\u00a0 Only a few vehicles here, but the young man at the visitor information center said that response to the opening of the all-season road to Tuktoyaktuk this first year had been above and beyond all expectations.\u00a0 Day use of the park and its facilities were still free, but on August 1st, they had started to charge $20 per night for tents or overnight parking.<\/p>\n

Since use of the picnic tables was free, Lupe and SPHP went and claimed one.\u00a0 Dinner by the Arctic Ocean!\u00a0 So much fun!\u00a0 Lupe met a local dog that may or may not have been a stray.\u00a0 The dog was friendly, and for a while things went well, but when her new friend showed a keen interest in Lupe’s Alpo, the Carolina Dog bared her fangs.<\/p>\n

To prevent a fight, SPHP persuaded Lupe to get in the G6.\u00a0 The other dog was bigger, and Loop was quite happy to comply.\u00a0 She could have her Alpo in peace, and still see the ocean.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Picnic tables were set up right next to the Arctic Ocean<\/strong>. No charge for using them. What a deal!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Where else can you have a picnic at the Arctic Ocean<\/strong>?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

When SPHP first heard about the all-season highway to Tuktoyaktuk, a big dream had been not only for Lupe to see the Arctic Ocean, but that maybe she would even be able to walk for miles along the beach.\u00a0 Maps of the area, and what Lupe had seen once she got here, had sort of ruled that possibility out.\u00a0 The shoreline was irregularly shaped, interrupted by many coves, some of which were in people’s backyards, boggy, and\/or otherwise inaccessible.<\/p>\n

That didn’t mean there might not be somewhere to explore the ocean, other than at the small park.\u00a0 After dinner, Lupe and SPHP set out to see if such a place could be found.\u00a0 Heading back S along Beaufort Road, Lupe went on by the visitor information center.\u00a0 A little farther on the L was a big wooden ship, Our Lady of Lourdes, which had once upon a time plied these waters.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

After passing a few houses, Lupe came to a cemetery with a white picket fence on the R (W) side of Beaufort Road.\u00a0 S of the cemetery, a side road led toward an apartment building.\u00a0 By going around to the back side of the apartments and continuing S, Lupe was able to reach a nice stretch of ocean shoreline.<\/p>\n

Loop and SPHP proceeded slowly S along a beach of small stones.\u00a0 What a remarkable evening!\u00a0 Here was Lupe, sniffing and exploring along the Arctic Ocean at the far N edge of the continent!<\/p>\n

Waves rolled in on a gentle breeze.\u00a0 The beach was gray.\u00a0 The ocean was gray.\u00a0 Most of the sky was gray, too, except where the unseen sun colored a few clouds yellow off to the NW.\u00a0 Some of the same pingos Lupe had seen on the way into Tuk were in view.<\/p>\n

No one else was out here walking the beach.\u00a0 Lupe did come to a lady from Tuktoyaktuk, who was busy cooking hot dogs and making s’mores on a driftwood fire for 4 girls.\u00a0 One of the girls, Lydia, was quite smitten with Lupe.\u00a0 Since Dingoes are fans of love and praise, the Carolina Dog graciously allowed Lydia to pet her and speak kindly to her.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, SPHP asked where all the driftwood came from since no trees grew around here?\u00a0 The woman said all the driftwood floats down the Mackenzie River, and gets carried to Tuk by currents, or during storms or windy days.<\/p>\n

The shoreline eventually curved back to the E toward some houses.\u00a0 This was about as far as Lupe could go.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

On the way back, SPHP picked out a stone for Lupe to keep as a souvenir of her evening stroll along Kugmallit Bay.\u00a0 The stone was tan with a few white stripes and a white spot.\u00a0 It was rounded and fairly smooth, but had little pock marks, too.\u00a0 Nothing too extraordinary about it, except where it came from.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

\"\"<\/a>
The souvenir rock. Last year, SPHP had brought Lupe a rock from the Beaufort Sea near Deadhorse in Alaska after taking an Arctic Ocean tour there that Lupe hadn’t been able to go on.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
A rock! For me? Always thinking of me, aren’t you, SPHP! Thank you, so much!<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Walking slowly, the whole stroll along the Arctic Ocean took only a little over an hour.\u00a0 Still, it was a wonderful time.\u00a0 The evening was drawing to a close, though.\u00a0 Lupe and SPHP left Tuktoyaktuk, and went to the Pingo Canadian Landmark near the welcome sign on the way into town.<\/p>\n

Lupe saw a beautiful sunset over Tareoknitok Lagoon before settling in for the night.\u00a0 What a memorable day for the American Dingo!\u00a0 Looper’s Arctic Ocean adventures in the Land of the Pingos weren’t over yet, though.\u00a0 Tomorrow she would have all day to explore Tuktoyaktuk, and take another stroll along Kugmallit Bay.<\/p>\n
