Always Build

On Fireweed Island, a polar bear rolls through fireweed like a dog who’s found the perfect patch of grass.

But while it might look like pure bliss, this season is about patience. With the sea ice gone, bears conserve energy, scratch the itch, and wait for opportunity. A beluga passing too close. A ground nest tucked into the tundra. Whatever the Arctic offers.

Rest when you can. Hunt when you must.
That’s summer in the North.
