In 20 June 2008 Alan Brook and Kobi Sade begun an unsupported sea kayaking expedition from Kullorsuaq in north-west Greenland. Kullorsuaq, which is located almost 1000km north of the arctic circle, was reached by helicopter flying out of Upernavik. After paddling northwards for a few days to a location where the Greenlandic icecap approaches the ocean, the two kayakers turned south exploring a region of remote wilderness and sparse Greenlandic villages for a period of about 4 weeks. The Blog describe the journey and brings stories and pictures of this high arctic region..
We passed thru "Sondre Upernavik" village today. The most remote southern village in the area.
We got some supply, the village people were very freindly and helpfull
We are most of the time in open sea, there are strong winds up to force 6 We had to land early due to strong head winds We are heading north to upernavik
