Title: Camp Mess Tent, Hjornbjerget, NE Greenland, July 04.
Description: Alternating shore walking with Zodiac rides, we reached the subidiary camp established by Rob Burton and Kathleen Cartwright, our Arcturus expedition leaders, on the eastern shore of Krumme LangsØ, overlooked from its western side by the almost sheer rocky bastion of Hjornebjerget (1137m). We soon became aware of the lemmings at the campsite, the first we had seen for several years.
