Hi from Baker Lake!
A message pops out from the tundra about 3.5 kilometres from Baker Lake on Oct. 7. Freddie Oovayuk used 152 wooden pallets painted white to spell the greeting near his cabin. The message, which took three weeks to create, briefly appeared on the flight-tracking app FlightRadar24 and Apple Maps before it was blurred. He hopes the sign will eventually show up on Google Earth. (Photo courtesy of Freddie Oovayuk/FlightRadar24)
