Southampton University Baffin Island Expedition

The high cost of local rations from the Hudson Bay store at Pagnirtung limited the scope of this expedition, based at Summit Lake on the Weasel River in the Cumberland Peninsula. Sediment sampling from side streams was abandoned, but the glacier snout was mapped and there was some general exploration of the area.
