splendid picture(s)
Geweldige foto zeg (en die andere foto's ook)! Als ik weer eens een trip naar een schitterend berggebied ga plannen, dan bekijk ik jullie blog om de mooiste uit te kiezen. Pakistan is denk ik mijn favoriet op dit moment, onbeschrijflijk mooi...

I just did the same trek!
Hello guys, I just completed a 12 day trek in East Greenland and it seems almost the same as your itinerary, though we did an organized trek with a reputable Icelandic company. I will publish my blogs soon but just want to acknowledge how amazing and incredibly beautiful your fotos were and looks like you guys had great fun, I just admire how brave you guys were going at it alone, I would have gotten lost if I did it alone or with friends, the guide had the gun and GPS, that helped..a week before we started another group was visited by a polar bear at the Ammassalik fjord, thankfully no one was hurt..thank you for inspiring me to go to Greenland and hike this area, the best experience one can have for a long long time, my best regards, Gil
