[2] :29–30 Baffin Bay was then navigable in the summers due to the presence of an ice dam in Smith Sound, which prevented Arctic drift ice from flowing south. The other channels of the archipelago remained congested with ice. [2] :37 Ellesmere Sculpture Trail uses sculpture to interpret the landscape of Ellesmere. Over the last 12 years artists have been commissioned to interpret the distinctive landscapes and heritage of the Mere and its woodlands, the hills of Castlefields and the turn of the 19 th Century Canal with its Maintenance Yard. There are now a total of 25 sculptures in the trail covering about 3 miles of walks which are open to the public every day free of charge. The Mere and Canal trails are fully accessible, Castlefields is over grassy gradients with historic views over the Mere.A period of uplift and faulting prior to the Pleistocene era (>2.6 Ma) established the overall features of the island. Additional uplift occurred due to isostatic rebound following the last glacial period. Land features were then shaped by erosion from glacial ice, meltwaters, and scouring by sea ice.

In 2006, University of Chicago paleontologist Neil Shubin and Academy of Natural Sciences paleontologist Ted Daeschler reported the discovery of the fossil of a Paleozoic (ca. 375 Ma) fish, named Tiktaalik roseae, in the former stream beds of Ellesmere Island. The fossil exhibits many characteristics of fish, but also indicates a transitional creature that may be a predecessor of amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals, including humans. [49] British and United States Arctic expeditions had been interrupted for some years due to the priorities of the Crimean War and the American Civil War, respectively. [9] :340 By about 1860, the focus of Arctic exploration had shifted to the North Pole. As earlier attempts at the pole via Svalbard or eastern Greenland had reached impasses, numerous expeditions came to Ellesmere Island to pursue the route through Nares Straight. [9] :334
