The US Constitution requires a census which is an "actual Enumeration". In Alaska, that includes trappers, lodge-owners, and hermits who live in cabins off the grid. These extraordinarily hardy US census employees ride their snowmobiles on the hundreds (or maybe thousands?) of miles of trails of rural, roadless Alaska, finding each individual cabin and counting the residents.

 

We met them at the Skwentna Roadhouse (50 miles from the nearest road) where they were gathered to analyze their data.

All that house paint on the exterior had a waterproofing effect and ended up protecting the interior birch paneling quite nicely.

I'm working on a project called Sustainable Howe Sound with the David Suzuki Foundation (sustainablehowesound.ca/).

 

From the website we're building... "Life in the waters of Howe Sound is rebounding after decades of harm from industrial activity. Planning for the future is the best way to protect the sound’s wildlife and communities. Sustainable Howe Sound is a platform for individuals and groups who share a commitment to protect Howe Sound. The end goal is a plan for land and marine environments guided by public and expert input.".

 

Our first visit was to Camp Firmcom (fircom.ca/) on Gambier Island. Check out the interview and photos! :)
