Coppermine River Canoe Expedition    Up   Previous    Next

Coppermine River Canoe 1987: I went exploring while the group relaxed at the end of the Rocky Defile portage. Up above the cliffs I encountered this gyrfalcon standing on the edge. He let me get within about 20 feet and I had a 500 mm lens, so I got a number of photos.
