Fog

Trapped by fog, surrounded by midges, melting bergs to do the dishes!

The Seven Settlements Solo Kayak Expedition sponsored by Folbot

In July 2010, I propose to paddle a folding kayak on a 450 km journey in the Uummannaq fjord area of North West Greenland (pop. 2784), 650 km north of the Arctic Circle. It is my intention to paddle solo, starting at the town of Uummannaq (pop. 1200) and travelling to each of the seven Inuit settlements (pop. app. 50-500) before returning to Uummannaq.

The expedition will focus on Greenlandic culture and nature as I explore the area I have grown to love and meet the people I have learned to respect, descendants of the first kayakers, whose craft is still held in high national regard.
