Just back from a short work stint in Baffin Bay...
On the way up fog offshore kept us in Aasiaat, Greenland for 3 days and although we couldn't venture too far from the airport I still managed to sniff out a small crag up in the hills behind...
(Apologies for poor quality of the snaps - only had my mobile phone unfortunately)
The Dash 7 - Greenland's commuter bus:
The Western boundary of the ice cap
The fine catering facilities at Aasiaat airport:
Lots to do round here then! (Aasiaat, pop 2000):
Aasiaat from the water:
Midnight at 70º, aboard the Troms Vision:
Something missing here (apart from the snow..):
Ah, here they are:
The new (micro-)crag, 5 minutes walk behind Aasiaat International Airport.
2 new lines at a whopping V.Diff max... Mosquitoes with size 10 boots the biggest objective danger..:
Aasiaat airport - complete with iceberg:
Local supermarket, food, hardware, guns, the works:
Downtown Aasiaat:
Harpoon gun - no longer in use unless the whales come in to the harbour!:
And finally, our trusty steed comes to take us to work:
