Your North: Best photos for the week of May 17

What's that? Is it the smell of spring in the air? We at CBC North think it might be based on all of the great photos submitted to us this week.

Send in your photos to our Facebook page for us to share across the North

What's that? Is it the smell of spring in the air? We at CBC North think it might be based on all of the great photos submitted to us this week.

We saw fishing in Gjoa Haven, Nunavut, ice breakups right along the Mackenzie River in the Northwest Territories, and some beautiful birds making their way back to Yukon.

Thanks to everyone for submitting photos this week, enjoy your long weekend and stay safe. And if you snap any great pictures along the way, send them in for next week's edition!

"Here is my dad Simon Hiqiniq Sr., he and my mom went to Ningihiukvik, spent eight days there and caught [a] little over 20 fish in that time span. He told us that he lost a bigger one, the fishing hole was a little too small. About 51 miles (82 kilometres) [southwest] of Gjoa Haven," says Angus Hiqiniq. (Submitted by Angus Hiqiniq)
