Eureka Weather Station, Canada

It's been a while since I've received mail from Eureka: the Canadian weather station on Ellesmere Island. The postmark has been refreshed a little since then. And I guess Canada Post felt the stamp was too colourful for this cover so they decided to spoil it for me. Good job.

The Eureka research and weather station is quite far north, but not the most northern research station. That would be the Canadian military and research station of Alert which is about 400km north of Eureka, on the north tip of Ellesmere island. But Alert doesn't have a post office.
