M is for Mukluk (ABC Project)
Eugene Boulanger showed off his classic Dene mukluks at our Environmental Research and Monitoring Workshop this week in Tulit'a, Northwest Territories. I really love the simple, utilitarian style of these moosehide and canvas mukluks. Eugene is the Director of Strategic Partnerships and Planning of Dechinta University.
