Kulusuk
|
View of this monstrous glacier outlet was taken from a plane hovering above the 50 meter deep glacier cracks. It was amazing to see straight down.
|
Kulusuk - East Greenland with 400 people. It was snowing when I arrived at the village Cap Dan. |
|
Greenland Cemetery-The graves only have crosses with no names as the villagers believe that they come back.
|
The scenery was amazing and I landed on the smallest landing strip I had ever seen. The landing strip was surrounded by ice all over the ground.
|
|
The girls were full of smiles and laughter while mom pounded seal skins.
|
Local Inuit village girl looking on with skeptisism.
|
|
Inuit Drum dancing is filled with such expression & unique verbal sounds, I will never forget it. It is a time honored tradition to dance well.
|
It was hard to imagine the clothes drying outside in that cold weather. The dogs were chained down everywhere.
|
|
The Greenland Huskys were beautiful and gave me a wonderful ride on the typical daily transportation.
|
Mountain Sledding - The villages are far removed and completely remote. One must fly from village to village. This was one of those moments. |
