For over 86 years, this was the wrecksite of the Maud, Roald Amundsen's ship that he undertook two expeditions with in 1918 and 1925. After that, the ship was used by the Hudson's Bay Company as a supply ship. In 1930, it capsized near Cambridge Bay. In 2016, after several unsuccessful attempts, the wreck of the Maud was finally raised and transferred to Oslo (since Roald Amundsen and his ship were Norwegian).
