Our outfitter, taking us out to patrol the north coast of the park. This was the end of October, and the temp's were dropping to -15 degrees Celsius. It doesn't sound too bad, but when you're on the open ocean, it is bloody cold!

The purpose of this patrol was to place boundary signs along the coast, as well as observe any activities of the sport-hunters in the nearby vicinity.

I will not pass judgement...
