 The nearest hamlet, Kugluktuk, Nunavut, is away.Historically, this area was occupied by the Kogluktogmiut subgroup of Copper Inuit.In 1978, the portion of the Territorial Park northwest of the Coppermine River was designated the Bloody Falls National Historic Site of Canada, as the archaeological remains of pre-contact hunting and fishing sites in the area form a record of the presence of Pre-Dorset, Thule, First Nation and Inuit peoples over the last 3000 years.
