Today marked the northernmost point we’d travel on our voyage, 70°41’N. We spent the morning visiting Uummanaq, a town on an island with the most beautiful mountain that gives Uummannaq its name.
In the afternoon, we visited the archaeological site, Qilakitsoq, where in 1972, eight naturally preserved Thule mummies were found by ptarmigan hunters. The mummies have since been removed, but the site is still accessible.
