The image shows a construction site on a rainy day, with a gray Ford pickup truck parked on wet dirt. The sky is overcast with heavy clouds, and rain is visibly falling, creating a misty atmosphere. In front of the truck, several large wooden boards and construction materials are scattered on the ground, some partially covered by rain. In the background, a large beige shipping container trailer is parked, with its side partially obscured by the rain. The area appears to be a staging ground for construction, with materials and equipment arranged around the site. The ground is muddy and wet, reflecting the dreary weather. The image is marked with the Naskapi Development Corporation logo in the bottom right corner.
The image shows the interior of a temporary construction shelter, likely serving as a workspace or kitchen under construction. The structure is framed with wooden walls, and the roof is covered by a white tarp supported by metal rods. The floor is made of plywood, with various construction materials and tools scattered around. In the center of the space, two wooden sawhorses stand, with a level tool resting on one of them. To the left, there is a miter saw mounted on a yellow stand, ready for use. The walls have small rectangular windows cut out, allowing some natural light to enter. The overall space appears organized but unfinished, with tools and materials suggesting ongoing work. The image is marked with the Naskapi Development Corporation logo in the bottom right corner.
The image features a selfie of a person with gray hair and a mustache, taken from an elevated position, possibly on a construction vehicle. The person is smiling slightly, with a backdrop of a construction site below. The site includes several small wooden buildings with green metal roofs, scattered across a large, dirt-covered area. In the background, a yellow excavator is seen digging a long trench, with piles of earth on either side. Further back, a large, serene lake stretches across the horizon, surrounded by dense evergreen trees. The sky above is partly cloudy, with patches of blue visible. The overall scene suggests ongoing construction work in a remote, picturesque location. The image is marked with the Naskapi Development Corporation logo in the bottom right corner.

⛈️ A huge storm hit the site today, but there was plenty of work to do inside. Lots of work was done inside the Naskapi Kitchen, with countertops being built, as well as floors being set up inside the tents.

💨 The storms did a great job cleaning the air, and the smoke from the fires out west was blown away. Shamu, one of the workers, climbed up high to run wires for the various systems we’ll need at the camp.

⛈️ Une grosse tempête a frappé le site aujourd’hui, mais cela ne nous décourage pas car il reste encore beaucoup à faire. À l’intérieur de la cuisine Naskapie, les travaux ont bien progressé : les comptoirs ont été construits et le plancher a été installé dans les tentes.

💨Les tempêtes récentes ont également eu un effet bénéfique en nettoyant l’air et en dispersant la fumée des incendies à l’ouest. Shamu, l’un de nos ouvriers, a été d’une grande aide en grimpant en hauteur pour installer les câbles des différents systèmes nécessaires au camp.
