My best images from The ExploreNorth Blog in 2018

by Murray Lundberg


The ExploreNorth Blog

Best images of each month from The ExploreNorth Blog


Dateline: January 8, 2024.

    It's common this time of year to look back at what happened during the previous year. For me, the photos on my blog are a good way of doing that, so I decided to pick out the best photo posted each month. "Best" doesn't mean photographically - images that I'd submit to a contest - merely images that I like because they show what we were up to, and that I connect with in various ways.

    In 2018, 95 posts were added to the blog, with a total of 2,154 photos. The longest post, with 59 photos, was "Exploring the Granduc Road to the Salmon Glacier and beyond", added on July 1st.
