Location: Maguse River Delta, Nunavut, Canada; NTS 55E Eskimo Point
Ground view of palsa-like features

This is a ground view of palsa or pingo-like features on the Maguse River Delta. This is what the features described under image 0108 look like at ground level, although this particular set is much lower than those shown in image 0246. The vegetated area in the right background as well as those in the distance are similar to the palsa-like circular features shown in images 0048, 0049, 0108, 0109, 0131, and 0244.
