Summer in Churchill by Jim Baldwin

In addition to driving a Tundra Buggy each autumn during peak polar bear season, Jim has become an essential part of our Frontiers North team during the summer as one of our main Tundra Buggy drivers. Although summer isn't peak polar bear season, Jim would agree that exploring the tundra during the slower months of July and August has its own set of unique rewards. 

Check out our Churchill Wildlife: Summer list to learn all the different species you could spot around Churchill in the summer. Fna 26 1

Jim is not only a talented Tundra Buggy driver; he also takes great photographs. See below for a collection of Jim's top photos from his summer in Churchill in 2018.
