Outlook Peak, Mountain summit in Qikiqtaaluk, Canada
Outlook Peak is a mountain summit located in Canada's far north on Axel Heiberg Island. The peak rises above 2200 meters and sits along the southwestern edge of the Muller Icecap in one of the country's most remote mountain regions.
This mountain sits in a landscape shaped by ice for thousands of years and forms part of the Arctic mountain chain. The region was only thoroughly explored and mapped during the 20th century through scientific expeditions.
The peak represents the natural majesty of Nunavut's Arctic Cordillera mountain system, which extends along the eastern coastline of the territory.
Access to this alpine region is extremely demanding and requires specialized Arctic gear and thorough planning. Visitors should expect unpredictable weather, great distance from civilization, and limited access during many months of the year.
The mountain holds position number 25 in prominence among 27,097 peaks across Canada, with the nearest higher summit located 262 kilometers eastward.
