We have been dropped off at the north shore of Nugssuaq Peninsula, from where the valley leads us to Uigordleg Lake. Fast and easy we made a quick progress. The following days the wind conditions were in our favor and we paddled with back wind all the way to Sarqap Taserssua Lake. The glaciers on the north side of the lake have retreated a lot with some had disappeared completely, leaving massive moraines. On the South side, witch is not as much exposed to the sun, glaciers are still there, however noticeably shrieked in there sizes.
Later on, the landscape become very colorful, due to volcanic activity formations. Some little streams were reddish color, due to iron deposits, I thinks. And the main river itself was super turbid, due to progressive erosion taking place in the area.
