Hiking on Disko Island - a photo on Flickriver

Hiking on Disko Island

            Disko Island is the second largest of Greenland after the main island.  On the second day of our walk, we wanted to cross Tunusua, a 467 m (1532 ft) pass.  Small gains in elevation made a big difference in the snow cover. We are now above the tundra and our route traverses snow, rocks and broad streams of meltwater. Is it easier than walking on tundra? It depends on how deep you sink into the snow. We were  excited about exploring the unknown terrain ahead. The photo is a panorama from two photos in landscape format.
