Duval River

The Ikuvik Trail starts on the east bank of the Duval River and leads to the peak of Mount Duval (671m above sea level). As the terrain is rocky most of the way, there is no real path. Follow the stone markers (inukshuks) along the Duval River and then turn to a V-shaped notch in the ridge and then pick either a direct path straight to the peak or a longer, less steep one around the south side of the mountain.

climb uphill

The Ukama Trail follows the west bank of the Duval River for about three miles to the mouth of an unnamed stream (elevation 300m). At the end of the trail, climb uphill (about 40m elevation) to reach a plateau with good views of the terrain. From there, you can choose to follow Duval River as it turns eastward, to follow the stream to small lake fed by glacier melt, or to continue climbing southeast to enjoy excellent views of the Duval River valley and the mountains surrounding it.
