At the beginning in Knud Rasmussens Land: |
The Wind was not strong enough... |
...to pull us and the heavy Pulks. |
Nevertheless we had some kiting fun. |
With the we pulks we barely moved 2km. |
Same thing in the Watkins Mountains. |
On Christian IV glacier: stormy Wind - now or never! |
At high speed the ride accross the widespread sastrugi fields is very rough. |
Soon we make some distance crossing the vast glacier. Then the wind turns against us. Far on the horizon: the Gronau Nunatakker. |
Perfect conditions, finally, on the way North from the Gronau Nunatakker. |
The wind increases,... |
... and we breeze through the polar night. |
We are able to cover 80 km in 2 days and hence name this route... |
...the Gronau-SternLand-Expressway. |
