Throughout this most remarkable journey, we will encounter many Inuit archaeological sites that date back thousands of years. You can often find remnants of stone tools and spear points lying on the ground, left behind by the nomadic Inuit people who used to live in and travel through this region on hunting forays, and still hunt & fish there to this day.

 

Many a surprise await you on this unique Arctic wildlife adventure!
