I was born in Yellowknife on Great Slave lake where this year Alone Artic is filmed. One no offence but this is not the Artic, it Boreal forest / borderline tundra but not the Artic. Great Slave is 400kms below the Artic Circle and over 1000 kms as a raven flys from Inuvik 3600kms by road (one of many true 'Artic' locations to base such a series from. Artic to a Northerner is the land of the Inuit not the Deni people. Also this show was filmed when there was still a lot of light and no real freezing (there is a 6 metre (20') thick solid surface of ice over Great Slave I the winter (there is a major Ice Hwy. from Hay River to Yellowknife) every winter. So saying these are 'Artic" conditions is like slightly stretching the truth lol. Do not get me wrong, I'm enjoying the series but some honesty about this years true 'location' would be nice. So like showing a northern Boreal Forest setting in early fall, is not the Canadian Artic sorry to burst anyones bubble.
Northerner
