On the NW tip of an island that was once part of Tigvariak Island, at the E point of entrance to Foggy Island Bay, on the Beaufort Sea Coast, Arctic Plain.
On August 7, 1826, Franklin named the island Lion and Reliance Reef after his two boats (the Lion was driven agrund at this place). Leffingwell (1919, p. 100) adopted the Eskimo name "Tigariak" for the island, and in his text, applied Franklin's names to the NE (Point Reliance) and NW (Point Lion) points of the island (p. 89). However, Leffingwell's maps show these points as Reliance Point and Lion Point.
