Here are a few more photos taken arount Lutsel K'e on a nice Spring day at noon.

Lutsel K'e School, grades 1 to 10.

The Lutsel K'e arena waits for another winter season.

May 26, 2009 and the ice is receding along the shore. Now to get the snow mobiles off the ice.

Check out this sunset, around 11:00, looking over Great Slave Lake.

New Friends

Here are my new friends in Lutsel K'e. They haven't told me their names yet. Very friendly, hope they stay that way! They won't stand still long enough to get a decent picture.

The boats are "resting waiting for Spring"

Above is the Lutsel K'e Dene First Nation office, as seen from the waterfront.

With almost 20 hours of daylight there is lot of opportunity to take some photos around the community.

Its now May 23 and still no sign of open water. Hopefully the ice will be gone before the annual visit by the barge from Hay River with supplies.

The only church in town but still used regularly by the faithful.

Co-op Hotel, home sweet home

This is really more of a hostel than a hotel but it is a comfortable place to stay. They have satellite TV, telephone and fax and now satellite internet as well. Arrive in Lutsel K'e via Air Tindi aboard a turboprop Otter, seats 9 people, about a 40 minute flight from Yellowknife, 250 miles away.
