Dort verwendeten Inuit Karibu-Geweihe für ihre Hüttendächer. -Artefakte und -Grabsteine befinden sich im Gebiet des Burnside River. Außerdem wurden Handelsgüter (Nadeln, Werkzeuge) gefunden, die sie von den Dene erhielten. Das Gebiet wurde in den Jahren 1821 und 1822 von Sir John Franklin im Auftrag der Hudson’s Bay Company erkundet. Heutzutage stellt der Fluss eine beliebte Wildwasser-Kanustrecke dar, welche weite Strecken mit ständigem Wildwasser sowie mehrere herausfordernde Stromschnellen bietet. (de)
  • The Burnside River is a river in the Canadian territory of Nunavut. It has its headwaters at Contwoyto Lake (66°2′36″N 111°14′33″W / 66.04333°N 111.24250°W), flows across the Precambrian Shield's Contwoyto Plateau, flows through isolated and rugged tundra, into , and through the Wilberforce Hills region. Before emptying into Bathurst Inlet on the Arctic Ocean, the Mara River empties into the Burnside River. The river has an island, Nadlak, historically notable for Inuit use of caribou antlers as hut roof infrastructures. The river is surrounded by continuous permafrost. It is migratory crossing path of Bathurst barren-ground caribou. Wildlife includes Arctic wolf, grizzly bears and muskox, while birds include golden eagle, rough-legged hawk and gyrfalcon. Arctic char, Arctic grayling, lake trout, and whitefish are also found in the river. Plants along the shoreline include dwarf willow and alder, plus 125 different wild flowers. Copper Inuit artifacts and gravestones are located in the Burnside River area, along with trade items (needles, tools) they received from Dene. The area was explored in 1821 and 1822 by Sir John Franklin of the Hudson's Bay Company. Present day, it is a popular wilderness whitewater canoe route, offering long stretches of continuous whitewater, as well as several more challenging sets of rapids. (en)
