It’s been a month and a half out here and I can hardly imagine what normal life will even feel like again.
There is something pleasant about the giving over to wilderness and about doing without. It takes it back to the bare essentials. And it’s hard not to have a kind of grief along with it, we’ve stopped valuing places like these, and they’re disappearing little by little. Greenland is beating every expectation.
A total eclipse of the sun. Musk oxen, polar bears. ROV searching for Greenland sharks. Diving under icebergs. Fishing Arctic char in rivers here.
Now we’re off further north, into the Northeast Greenland National Park — the biggest national park on the planet and as distant as you can get from anywhere. No towns. No roads. No people. Just ice and rock and whatever’s out there.
