Location description
Freshwater lake outside of Iqualuktuuttiaq (Cambridge Bay), Nunavut. The Inuinnaqtun name, Iqualuktuuttiaq, means "A rich fishing lake". The lake's bedrock in the region of the watershed is Cambrian limestone. Sea-run Arctic char are found there. They migrate every second year to the sea to feed intensively on abundant marine life during a period of several weeks in the summer when they travel from the ocean to span. Resident Char, Whitefish, Lake Trout, and Cisco are also found in the lake. There is a fishery downstream.
