Coppermine River
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.
The community of Kugluktuk (formerly Coppermine) is located at the river's mouth on the Arctic Ocean.
