Adlatok River. Information.
Ed note: Serious ww river: “falls, chutes, rapids and unrunnable canyons”.
Comments on the name:
1. Called the Ugjoktok River in earlier reports but there’s no such thing at Toporama.
2. Adlatok reports were recognised as such by references to Harp Lake and other clues.
3. The Adlatok River reaches salt water near Ugjuktok Bay (the name appears on the map but is not recognized by Toporama).
4. The Ugjuktok River lies in the Torngats.
Commercial trip (Harp Lake to Hopedale).

Coastal Routes

Caution.
Those of us with a background in lake and river paddling, even those comfortable in big water, might reflect on whether we possess the knowledge, equipment and skills necessary to deal with the very different hazards associated with coastal paddling. A course or a guided trip might be a good idea before attempting any of the coastal Routes described in the links given below.
From what I've read, every responsible paddler carries a VHF radio and is well versed in its operation.
