The Coppermine River is a river in the North Slave and Kitikmeot regions of the Northwest Territories and Nunavut in Canada. It is 845 kilometers long. It rises in Lac de Gras, a small lake near Great Slave Lake, and flows generally north to Coronation Gulf, an arm of the Arctic Ocean. We are planning to do ~400km.
Our starting point is Rocknest Lake or Redrock Lake, NWT.
Our exit point is the community of Kugluktuk (formerly Coppermine) Nunavut is located at the river's mouth on the Arctic Ocean.
