Song of the sea - Exploring Scoresbysund by seakayak - northeast Greenland

-- Scoresbysund is the largest fjord in the world. This kayak-expedition in northeast Greenland was self guided and unsupported (apart from the pickup by motorboat). An authentic adventure. Two people (Frank van Zwol & Jolanda Linschooten), two foldable sea kayaks. July/august 2022. 26 days of provisions and unnameable stretches of sea, mountains & glaciers. We started paddling through the pack ice. Later this changes to inland icebergs. We met arctic hare, muskox and arctic fox. We came along a ghost town, a spooky cabin and the remnants of inuit-sodhouses. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Our outdoorgear: Foldable seakayaks: Nortik Navigator & Nortik Argo Gram paddle (greenland style) & Werner Shuna paddle (euro style) Norwegian Wood spare paddles (Greenland style) Hyperlite Mountain Gear 4 P tent (with half insert) XGK expedition multi fuel stove sleeping bags: Rab Mythic 400 sleeping bag & Helsport Rago Winter sleeping mattress: Exped synmat UL lightweight cheap undermattress of closed celfoam riffle (rented) tripwire from iridium satellite phone Garmin inreach mini emergency beacon VHF radio solar panels: Allpowers --Cameragear: Olympus TG6 GoPro Hero10 Sony RX10 MIII Sony alpha 6000 Samyang 12 mm/ Lensbaby Velvet 56mm Gitmo mountaineer tripod DJI Mavic mini drone ---------------------------------------------------------------------- I hope you find time. Or even better: want to make time. As I made this filmdocumentary not for the rushed among us. As the expedition took 26 days and the editing back home almost as much (21 - although these days were not as long!), the story about this part of Greenland, the kayak and our tiny role in it, cannot and should not be told quickly. This vast expanse of nature, raw and pure, takes time to get familiar with. As its history, its animals and its people. I hope you enjoy watching it.
