At Summit



After a week of wandering Akureyri, Iceland and waiting on the weather, our crew received the go-ahead call from the Norlandair pilots, and boarded Twin Otters to fly across the Denmark Strait and up to Summit.  The trip traversed several hours of cold ocean, an imposing landscape on the Greenland coast, and finally began to cross the immense frozen plain of the ice sheet.  We're now eating, sleeping, and getting trained at the station.  The lighting and weather has been in constant change, and it is cold here.
