Set against an awesome mountainous backdrop, Pond is one of the most beautiful communities in Nunavut. Although the area was visited by explorers since the 1600s and named in the 1800s, the community of Pond Inlet wasn’t formed until 1921. Goods are transported to the community by one sealift every year. Fresh food such as fruits, vegetables and milk is flown from Montreal to Pond Inlet several times a week. Because of the great distances involved, these goods are expensive.
