You will explore this lush lowland area looking for archaeological remains and herds of muskox. Then, you will head inland, following the Truelove River. As you climb, the terrain will become more austere and vegetation will dwindle. You will have spectacular views over Jones Sound and towards the Devon Ice cap. You will head back by way of the Svedrup Glacier and along the shoreline past Capes Hardy and Sparbo, with additional opportunities to see archaeological remains. This is a true Arctic wilderness, steeped in the lore of ancient cultures and brave explorers - an excellent expedition for the seasoned arctic adventurer.
