Labrador Survey Photos

Posted by Ted MacKinnon on January 21, 2013 at 11:03am

During the past decade I have been fortunate enough to travel all over North America and one of my recent survey work related trips brought me to Labrador for the first time.The survey took place in various places throughout the Mealy Mountains and surrounding coastal areas,

Mealy Mountains located in the southern portion of Labrador, is situated south of Lake Melville, north of Sandwich Bay and borders the Labrador Sea. The mountain range encompass over 26 thousand square kilometers of forests, tundra, wetlands, coastal barrens, lakes, beaches and bogs. A significant portion of the Mealy Mountains and surrounding areas has been designated as a potential National Park Reserve.

A helicopter certainly is the best means of transportation here although I am sure boats or skidoos in winter are also pretty good choices. I have included a few highlight photos here but have many more on my personal blog as well.
