Chesterfield Inlet/Igluligaarjuk

The Hudson Bay Company whaling ship Perseverance overwintered at Chesterfield Inlet/Igluligaarjuk in the winter of 1895-96. Although whalers frequented the site relatively little, the Inuit met there for trading. Inuit travelling to Chesterfield Inlet/Igluligaarjuk were greatly exposed to Hudson Bay whalers.
