This image was taken in Whitehorse, YK at the local RV park. It shows a broken window from a wartime American jeep. It reminded me of the coastline along Ungava Bay in Nunavik (Northern Quebec). As well it brought back some historical resonances of American involvement in the Arctic during the Cold War days and the Distance Early Warning Line, a huge stretch of radar stations in the Arctic built to detect Soviet attack.
