My trip to Yellowknife was a bit longer than planned (about 8 hours longer) as an aircraft
part malfunctioned and required replacement prior to take-off. Right before take-off actually. We'd already taxied out to the runway but had to return because of the finicky part.
It turned
out well however (and not just because it's always better to discover a faulty part on the runway as opposed to in-flight) as I reclaimed my rental car and went exploring. I photo-documented
Yellowknife’s rich culture of abandoned vehicles, one of which was relieved of
its license plate as it sat on a boat launch with smashed windows and full of debris (the plate is now adorning my office cubicle wall J). The car was a former taxi and, according to the tag on the plate, had been inoperable since 2003.

No plate on this one. |
This truck had a "Friendly Manitoba" plate. |
You just never know what might be hiding in the hedge. |
