Follow Ingraham Trail as Road Disappears Into Wildfire Smoke

This aerial tracking shot follows the Ingraham Trail outside Yellowknife, with the edge of Giant Mine visible on the right and rugged rock outcrops dotted with scattered trees on the left. As the drone moves alongside the road, the background fades into a wall of wildfire smoke that blankets the entire scene. The haze reduces visibility to a soft, muted brown gradient, flattening the depth of the landscape and subduing natural colours to earthy tones. Filmed during one of the worst air quality days in Yellowknife’s history, this rare environmental moment offers a haunting visual of climate and wildfire impact in Canada's North.
