These little center islands always make me wonder when the last time a human stepped on that piece of land

There is a lake on Victoria Island in the arctic archipelago that I am reasonably sure has never been seen by a real person, and it is unnamed. Furthermore, the lake has a small island on it. One of my life's goals is to see this lake and island someday.
There’s a ton of lakes in Nunavut that have no names, and a lot have islands, but I imagine you’re talking about this one which is unique in that it has a lake on the island. Which is in a lake. Which is on an island (Victoria island).
I’m not impossible that someone had been there though, it’s only about 200km from Cambridge Bay, and that terrain is actually quite flat and easy to travel over. They also travel all over Victoria island all the time hunting, lots of times very long distance, so it’s entirely possible someone has gone there.
Lovely spot! However, the location I'm looking at is far from where you showed me.

Ah, gotcha. I hope you get there one day! Really, anywhere in the arctic is a great experience in itself.
