Arnarulunnguaq, a Native Greenlander, was a key member of Knud Rasmussen's Fifth Thule Expedition (1921-1924) which crossed the Northwest Passage by dog sled. She was one of the two who accompanied Rasmussen from the Hudson Bay to Alaska, preparing meals and keeping skins and furs in order throughout the two-year journey. As a result, she was the first woman to complete the long Arctic journey from Greenland to the Pacific.
