Peel River Confluence
Watch the Peel River wind its way north before merging into the massive Mackenzie River system.
Mackenzie Delta
View one of the world's largest deltas, featuring an intricate web of thousands of interlocking waterways.
Thermokarst Lakes
Spot the unique 'pockmark' lakes created by the thawing of ground ice in the permafrost.
Campbell Lake
A large, prominent lake that serves as a landmark during the final descent into Mike Zubko Airport.
The right side is essential for seeing the complexity of the delta. In the summer, look for the 'Midnight Sun' reflecting off the water channels. Keep an eye out for pingos—conical, ice-cored hills—which are characteristic of this northern landscape near Inuvik.
