We sailed from East Greenland to the South, where I was dropped off at Stordalens Havn. From there it took 15 days to reach Narsarmijit with a packrarft.

At first I went around Angnikitsoq Island to Prince Christian Sound. Then resupplied at Aappilattoq. From Aappilattoq locals took me to Kangerdlua Fjord, where the glaciers are retreating with enormous speed and drop me off at Tupassat area. From there I packrafted to Narsarmijit.

The trip started on Sep 10 and it was about time when the foliage colors start to show up. During the next two weeks the valleys were burning with autumn colors, and faded away just when I finished the trip.
