{{Short description|Mountain range in Nunavut, Canada}} The '''Thorndike Peaks''' are a [[mountain range]] located south of the entrance to [[Makinson Inlet]], on the east coast of [[Ellesmere Island]], [[Nunavut]], [[Canada]]. They are part of the [[Arctic Cordillera]] and are virtually unexplored.<ref>[http://americanalpineclub.org/AAJO/pdfs/1981/194_canada_greenland_aaj1981.pdf The American Alpine Journal 1981] {{Dl|date=October 2017}}</ref> There are no [[tree]]s or wildlife in the Thorndike Peaks because the mountains are north of the Arctic [[tree line]] and because of the harsh cold climate.
