Crossing Lake Aylmer (3hs. a.m.)

Description: 

This image portrays an icescape with distant mountains. The Arctic sun is low on the horizon, and smoke-like clouds extend in a widening mass from the far right of the image to the upper left corner. A long line of men with dogsleds attempt to go around a crevasse in the ice that extends from the lower right to the upper left. Two men wait by a sled (packed with a chest, kettle, basket, and blanket), one with his head in his hands. There is a sizeable hole in the ice to their immediate right.3This image portrays an icescape with distant mountains.
