How to read this map

The Coppermine River is about 840 km (522 mi) long. It rises at Lac de Gras and flows into the Coronation Gulf. Tributaries include Kendall River, Fairy Lake River and Starvation River.

The highlighted blue line is the course of the Coppermine River as mapped by Natural Earth.

Greens show lower elevations; tan and brown show higher land, with pale tones toward the highest terrain. Shadows emphasize the slopes, and vertical relief is exaggerated so landforms are easier to read. Dashed lines show country borders, and fine dashed lines show state or province borders.

The relief uses Terrain Tiles (SRTM, GMTED2010 and ETOPO1 elevation data). Rivers, lakes, borders and the course of the Coppermine River come from Natural Earth, and the figures on this page from Wikidata. Natural Earth draws features at a small scale, so the line is a guide to where the Coppermine River is, not a surveyed boundary.
