Yellowknife Day 4 Continued
by: Mark Comeau

Later that night we got bundled up, and headed to the cold to see if the Aurora would come out.  We stepped out into the cold around 9:30, the sky was clear, and there was a good chance for a show.  We did see the Aurora.  It's hard to explain it, it appears like a green streak across the sky, then it will either grow and start to move or just fade away. We spent a few hours just looking at the sky.  Definitely worth it.  Temp was well I to the -30's°C feel like into the -40's°C

The lodge offers a service where they will wake you up if the Aurora start while your asleep.  This night they knocked on our door around 1:00am, we went out into the night to take a look at the lights, we did get quite a good show; pictures to follow.  We got to bed after 2:00m.
