Don Smith at Rea Point     This is me at Panarctic Oils Ltd. Base Camp. Rea Point was on the South East corner of Melville Island, and was situated on a sand bar. All of Panarctic's drilling operations were supplied from Rea Point and there were often over a hundred trips a day in and out of the busy airstrip.      I was yard foreman there for two years.
