Nunavut, Canada for National Geographic Magazine

Damarise Aqqiarug dresses her two-year-old son Lester in an outpost camp near Igloolik. In an effort to reconnect with the land, some Inuit families have chosen to move out of town to live in outpost camps. Until Europeans came north, the Inuit had lived on the land as nomadic hunters for about 4,500 years. Living in an outpost camp is a remnant of this nomadic Inuit lifestyle. The government provides a small subsidy to help families set up. The Aqqiarugs built a small shelter and hunt and fish for a living. Aurora image #1891410004
