Cape Stallworthy

Cape Stallworthy (originally Svartevaeg) is the northernmost point of Axel Heiberg Island in the Qikiqtaaluk Region, Nunavut, Canada.

Originally named Svartevaeg ("black wall") by Otto Sverdrup,[2] it was later renamed in honour of Royal Canadian Mounted Police officer Harry Stallworthy, an Arctic explorer.

[3] Frederick Cook began his 1908 North Pole journey from the cape.

[2] Cape Stallworthy is sometimes confused with Cape Thomas Hubbard on the opposite side of Eetookashoo Bay.
