Thoughts From a "Lost Canadian" About Auyuittuq National Park
As I've written, I am so happy to learn Canada values their National Parks and while some countries are trying to reduce their National Parks and the protections those areas have historically had in place, Canada is not only continuing to protect their National Parks, but they are increasing them as well. I have been learning about these amazing places across Canada and today I'm writing about Auyuittuq National Park, which is a national park located on Baffin Island's Cumberland Peninsula, in the Qikiqtaaluk Region of Nunavut.
The park was initially known as Baffin Island National Park when it was established in 1972, but the name was changed in 1976 to its current name to better reflect the region and its history.
It features many terrains of Arctic wilderness, such as fjords, glaciers, and ice fields.
Although Auyuittuq was established in 1972 as a national park reserve, it was upgraded to a full national park in 2000.
