Photo by acacia.johnson | Before a camping trip, a homemade tent airs out on the sea ice in Canada's Arctic Bay. Every spring, when the school year comes to an end, Inuit families in this remote community take to the land to camp, hunt, and fish for weeks at a time. These trips are a way for young people to learn traditional skills from their elders, some of whom were raised in outpost camps far from the nearest towns. Follow me at acacia.johnson for more stories from the Arctic.
