Welcome to Navy Board Inlet

An L-shaped series of named waterways separate Bylot Island from Baffin Island.

Yesterday, we entered the area through the bottom arm of the “L” via Pond Inlet and made our way to Eclipse Sound, visiting the Inuit community of Pond Inlet along the way.

Overnight, we transited Eclipse Sound and entered the upright arm of the “L” to arrive in Navy Board Inlet. We’ll be continuing up to the mouth of this inlet to eventually enter Lancaster Sound to get to Resolute on the 17th … stopping in places where the Franklin Expedition left its footprints in the mid 1800s.

But first, we’ll be playing around a bit in this area. Before we head off for our hike on Baffin Island, a quick glimpse of the scenery we beheld from the ship at breakfast this morning.もっと詳しく
