This was a another 2+km hike about 45 minutes outside of Yellowknife. It was nice and easy with a couple of 100 ft elevation gains.
I waded into the creek above the falls and put one of my socks back on. When I went to put the second sock on, I noticed a bunch of black mud or debris on my foot. Then I noticed that they really looked like tiny moving worms. LEECHES. EWWW!. I immediately brushed them off without thinking, then thought. Damn I should have taken a picture. Then I remembered the other foot. But is was leech free. I wanted to go back in to get the shot, but Lina wouldn’t let me.
