The solo trek across Baffin Island - Canada's largest island - took Ms Hempleman-Adams from Qikiqtarjuaq to Pangnirtung, through Auyuittuq National Park.

The attack took place last week on Breevort Island, southeast of Baffin Island.

Encompassing over 16,000 km2 of towering mountains, long fiords, lush valleys, and massive ice caps, Agguttinni Territorial Park is a protected area on northern Baffin Island, Nunavut, Canada.

Across this large area, they studied many different habitats from the interior Barnes Ice Cap to the coast of Baffin Bay.

Dr. Gillespie and her team also examined over 300 existing herbarium specimens from the park area, most of which were collected in 1950, the last time botanists intensively studied this part of Baffin Island.
