The Byam Martin Mountains extend across Bylot Island with sharp peaks, ridges, and deep valleys filled with glaciers at coordinates 73.2283°N, -78.6208°W.
Pat Baird conducted the first recorded expedition to these mountains in 1939, traversing from Aktineq Glacier to Bathurst Bay and returning via Sermilik Glacier.
The Inuit people from Pond Inlet regularly travel through this mountain range, maintaining their connection with this northern territory.
Access to these mountains requires advanced mountaineering equipment and careful planning due to extreme Arctic conditions and absence of established infrastructure.
