This is the latest in the season to have this much snow at Igloo Lake Lodge, says operatorEven for Labrador, the amount of snow around Igloo Lake Lodge is surprising.
A little snow, sure, but the banks around the southeastern Labrador fishing camp is wreaking havoc on summer plans.
"It's not uncommon to see snow around the lodge —
not six feet, though," says Jim Burton, who operates Igloo Lake Lodge.The lodge borders Mealy Mountain National Park, about 115 kilometres southeast of Happy Valley-Goose Bay.
Burton said this is the first time in 50 years he's had to fly in a snowmobile in order to get supplies to the camp and get it ready for the season.
