NPC-NIRB 2022 9.0.Docx Weber Arctic Ayr Lake Land Use Plan for April 2022 This is a proposal for the Weber Arctic Ayr Lake land use permit. This an amendment of the project proposed in 2019. Weber Arctic is committed to addressing the concerns from the Hamlet of Clyde River, Clyde River Community Joint Planning and Management Committee (CJPMC) and Clyde River HTO. Weber Arctic’s intentions are to bring positive initiatives, healthy sustainable tourism to Clyde and future employment to the community. This is the second proposal for this project to be submitted to NPC and NIRB. The first proposal received strong opposition from a few community members, including inaccurate information posted to the NIRB web site. With the emergence of Covid-19 in early 2020 Weber Arctic was unable to address the arguments presented by the community and had to abandon the application. Due to the current Covid-19 pandemic Weber Arctic has been unable to return to the community or felt it was not socially responsible to visit the community for tourism-based reasons. The last visit to Clyde River was May 2019, several attempts were made to visit, but were postponed by the pandemic. Summary of the Project The purpose of this project is to launch skiing, namely cat skiing, heli-skiing and ski touring in the mountains in the Mount Wordie area west of Clyde River. This project requires a camp on the shore of Ayr Lake. The proposed dates of operation are from April 05, 2022 to May 10, 2022. Cat skiing is defined as using a snow cat with a passenger cab on the back to transport skiers up the mountain. Skiers ski downhill, are picked up by the snow cat and transported back uphill. A snow cat is a tracked vehicle with a very low pressure foot print (less than a human), it runs on diesel fuel and maximum speed is 25 km/h. A snowcat is designed to drive on snow only, so there is no lasting environmental impact on tundra, driving over rocks or frozen ground damages the machine. From an operational point, the snow cat is less expensive than a helicopter and can be used when the weather is not good enough to fly the helicopter. It can also transport gear and people in all weather conditions. Heli-skiing is defined as using a helicopter to transport skiers to the top of the mountain where they disembark, then ski downhill. They are picked up at the bottom and flown back up. Ski touring is defined as when a skier walks up the mountain on their skis. Skins are attached on the bottom of the skis to provide grip. At the top of the mountain, the skins are removed and skiers ski back downhill. All the skiing that is done each day is carried out far up in the mountains. There is no skiing in the valleys (where wildlife might be found). Skiing is almost exclusively done on glaciers. Most of the flying with the helicopter is done at above 4000 feet in order to safely be above mountain peaks. The area where the skiing takes place is the mountains around Mount Wordie. There are no plans for any ski chair lifts, permanent installations or ski resort. This tent camp has a maximum of 12 guests and staff. There are no plans to expand the camp beyond this number of guests because the ski conditions in the area doesn’t support more skiers. The Camp The camp is built from Pacific Domes. The domes are made of a light metal frame on a plywood floor. Fabric is placed over the frame to make a tent. Everything is set up on the snow. There are six domes and staff sleep in tents. Two of the domes are heated with kerosene heaters. The other Domes are heated with catalytic type heaters. Staff tents are not heated. Cooking is done on two small household type propane ranges. At the end of the season the camp is packed into two sea containers. The Dome frames are left erected. The wood floors are stacked up and stored outside. This is a very basic camp, camping in the true sense. The location is a low peninsula on the shore of Ayr Lake, about thirteen kilometers from the outflow of the lake and more than 50 kilometers from where the river flows into the sea. The area is flat enough for a camp and above flooding levels. The actual footprint is about 100m x 100m. Environment Human waste (not toilet paper) is collected using an outhouse. The outhouses have a custom containment which collects all the human waste. The human waste is frozen in containment containers. The sewage is then transported several kilometers (70°26’27.4”N -70°11’48.3”W) away from the camp and 60 meters away from any natural water course and deposited in a sump. The toilet paper is separated and brought to the municipal dump of Clyde River. We have the same system at Arctic Watch Lodge which has been running for 20 years. This sump system has been inspected and approved by INAC and QIA inspectors for decades. All garbage, including toilet paper is transported back to town. All cleaning products are biodegradable. Laundry services are done in Clyde River. At the end of the season, the camp packed away into the two sea containers. These are no permanent structures. There is no plan to build any permanent structure. We don’t touch the ground, move any rocks or affect the local environment. This location was chosen in order to stay away from possible erosions, floods or soft ground. The containers are locked for the season; no other materials are left on the ground. No fuel will be stored at the camp. Wildlife: ● Fish The camp takes place at a time when the lake is frozen solid. Nothing is put in the lake. The only contact with the water is to take water out of the lake, manually with buckets for drinking and washing. The presence of our camp for one month each year on the shore of Ayr Lake does not prevent and is not detrimental to community members who wish to fish. The camp is on the land. The camp is set up in an ecologically sustainable manner as described in this document. This camp will not affect any fish or fish habitat. As a result, Ayr Lake’s ecological biodiversity is not at risk. Weber Arctic does not provide fishing to our guests. Weber Arctic supports the community by buying fish from town and serving it to guests. ● Polar Bear Disturbance According to two Nunavut polar bear biologists, most polar bears on Baffin Island den within 10 km of the coast. By April 15th of each year, most bears are out on the sea ice hunting. (Ian Stirling and Markus Dyck, polar bear biologists please see attached documentation). Mothers with cubs come out from dens in March and head toward the sea ice to hunt. The camp is 50 km inland from the ocean, skiing takes place even farther from the ocean. This project will not disturb polar bears as per the scientific data provided by the Government of Nunavut scientists and other biologists. ● Polar Bear Hunting: A review of Clyde River polar bear kills for the last few years clearly demonstrates that the camp and skiing activities are not an area suitable for polar bear hunting. Please see attached documentation. ● Polar Bear Safety Polar bear safety around camp is taken very seriously. All guides are equipped and trained in polar bear safety. They are equipped with shotguns and bear spray. We have a trained camp dog to alert us should a bear come at night. We assume the same bear safety precautions across all operations including Arctic Watch Lodge, Arctic Haven Lodge and Weber Arctic guiding. Weber Arctic has many years of experience dealing with polar bears, we have encountered / seen hundreds of bears. After 30 years of guiding in Nunavut are happy to say Weber Arctic has never had an incident resulting in bear injury or death. ● Birds The camp and skiing activities take place before any migrating birds arrive (Ian Stirling and Mark Mallory, please see attached documentation). Traditional land Use Weber Arctic respects the traditional land use in Nunavut. The camp and activities do not impede or hinder any traditional use of land. Ayr Lake was previously an access route for caribou hunting. The camp is not on the trail. The camp is not even visible from the trail, being hidden behind a low hill. Community members have told us that no one fishes in Ayr Lake in April or May. The camp does not prevent anyone from fishing in the lake. The area in front of the camp is not appropriate for fishing as it is a very shallow bay (most of the bay is frozen to the ground) Skiers do not ski in the valley bottoms but up on the glaciers and mountain tops. Participants ski in the mountains above Ayr Lake and around Mount Wordie. This high alpine terrain is not caribou habitat or polar bear habitat, it is all rock and ice. In short, recreational activities take place at higher elevations, above wildlife habitat. This is not to say that the occasional bear doesn’t wander through the mountains but at this time of year, the vast majority are out on the sea ice. We do not ski or fly over the far end (west) of the Lake. We do not operate skiing on the outflow of Ayr Lake, nor do we drive on the river.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} North to the Pole by Will Steger North to the Pole by Will Steger. A formidable voice calling for understanding and the preservation of the Arctic, and the Earth, Will Steger is best known for his legendary polar explorations. He has traveled tens of thousands of miles by kayak and dogsled over 50 years, leading teams on some of the most significant polar expeditions in history. Expeditions Steger led the first confirmed dogsled journey to the North Pole without re-supply in 1986, the 1,600-mile south-north traverse of Greenland (the longest unsupported dogsled expedition in history) in 1988, and led the first dogsled traverse of Antarctica (the historic seven month, 3,741-mile International Trans-Antarctica Expedition) in 1989–90. Educator & Entrepreneur Will Steger is also an educator, author, entrepreneur and eyewitness to the effects of climate change. With his ability to blend extreme exploration and cutting-edge technology, Steger pioneered online education – reaching more than 20 million students via online daily journals and even delivering the first ever transmission of digital photography from the North Pole. Based on his unique eyewitness experience with climate change in the Polar Regions, he established Climate Generation: A Will Steger Legacy in 2006 (formerly Will Steger Foundation), a Minneapolis, MN based nonprofit that educates and empowers people to engage in solutions to climate change. Drawing on his knowledge as an expedition leader, Will Steger designed the Steger Wilderness Center in Ely, MN, dedicated to solving the problems of our age at a place that inspires clarity and break-through innovation.

  • British Polar Adventurer Conrad Dickinson Steps Into the History Books
    British polar adventurer Conrad Dickinson steps into the history books Submitted by: Yes Consultancy Thursday, 27 April 2006 The Hexham polar hero, Conrad Dickinson, aged 50, marched into the history books at 01.30 hours GMT on Thursday April 27 2006 when he arrived at the North Geographic Pole in just 52 days and twelve hours. He has knocked 10 days off the British record for the fastest unsupported 775 km (482 miles) trek from Ward Hunt Island, Canada, to the top of the world. The Northgate North Pole expedition (http://www.northgatenorthpoleclassic.com) – with 46-year-old Canadian ski champion Richard Weber – is the first polar trek to have been done in snow shoes alone. Conrad is also one of the few people in the world to have achieved the ‘polar trilogy’ of conquering Greenland, Antarctica and now the North Pole. Since the start of the expedition on March 5, Conrad has been arduously trekking against the clock because April 29 is the latest time a pilot would pick them up, as the shifting sea ice becomes too thin and unsafe for planes to land after this date. To save time, the team had been marching for up to 17 hours a day with no breaks. Even when Richard fell completely through the ice he chose to carry on trudging for another four hours so as not to lose time. As well as the ever-present threat of polar bears, shifting ice, open stretches of water miles long, temperatures as low as -40ºC, a week of pure ‘white-out’ conditions and a diet of modified dog food, Conrad has remained cheerful and up-beat.

  • Polar Bears Disturbance
    From: Ian Stirling <[email protected]> Subject: polar bears disturbance Date: March 25, 2020 at 10:26:09 AM PDT To: Richard Weber <[email protected]> Dear Richard, Thanks for your email enquiring about the possibility of bothering polar bears at a ski camp at Ayr Lk, about 55 km W of Clyde River, from mid-April to mid- May. I am not personally familiar with the area around your camp, though I conducted field research on polar bears worked about SE Baffin as far north as Broughton Island, through 4 spring seasons back in the late 1970s. I am also quite familiar with the polar bear field studies conducted by colleagues on eastern and NE Baffin in subsequent years. It is my understanding that the maternity dens that have been reported from eastern Baffin Island have mainly been found and reported from a relatively narrow band within a few km of the coast, and not as far inland (55 km) as your camp or up on glaciers. Areas around the heads of fiords are favoured by family groups in early spring because they tend to have good populations of pupping ringed seals for mother bears to hunt after leaving the maternity den but few adult males that might be dangerous to cubs at that time of year. Families also hang around the heads of fiords later in the spring as breakup approaches and and open water takes over but I don't think this would conflict with any of your activities. One thing I did see a couple of times on SE Baffin was tracks of single bears going from one fiord system to another via mountain passes exiting and entering the fiords respectively, part of the way inland from the mouth.
