Hi Nick, I personally have not been to Lancaster Sound, but I have met people that have been. Based on my recollection the best way to get up there is via Iqualuit, Nunavut. There are several commercial airlines that go to the capital via Toronto, Montreal, Yellowknife or Ottawa. From Iqualuit you would likely have to charter a flight. There are at least 2 or 3 charter companies that fly out of Iqualuit. I think I would go with your feathercraft. If you want to get there via water there are marine transportation depots at Hay River NWT and Churchill Manitoba. Canadian coast guard stations in Inuvik, Hay River NWT or Ottawa, Ontario may be able to help point you in the right direction as well. Lancaster Sound is a very unique, diverse and special place - kind of like a nature oasis in the middle of the high Canadian Arctic. It comes highly recommended, for beluga, norwhale, walrus etc viewing. Happy paddling, :) Jim Meldrum In -35 C northern Alberta, Canada. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
