Blower 134 pulls off to let a Canadian Forces CC-130H (KC-130 tanker) pass on taxiway 'B'

Winter arrived right on schedule today with several inches of snow falling on the airport.  Most of the snow fell in the space of a couple of hours early in the afternoon resulting in a successful 'all hands' effort to keep the runway clear.  Inuvik actually gets less snow than most places in Southern Canada but by mid-October the temperature stays below freezing so the snow doesn't melt until May.
