Gurreholm Station looking west across Nordost Bugt to Syd Kap and Kjoveland, North-East Greenland |
| Description: |
The Arcturus Syd Kap expedition, lead by Crispin Day, spent the last two nights of the expedition at this large and historic Trappers' Station, having been transpoerted from Kukajik Beach by a Scoresby sund Inuit in two journeys. On the last day a Twin Otter made the first landing for 20 odd years on the steep sloping grass strip just above the Station, and transported the party back to Constable Pynt; minus Crispin Day and Peter Roberts who were taken back by boat to Milne Land. |
